I've been struggling with life in general lately. I've stopped attending church regularly, I've stoppped going to Institute, I haven't been reading my scriptures or praying, and I just haven't been happy with myself for awhile. But I have been writing a missionary who is friends with two of my roommates. In the last letter i got from him, he shared his testimony with me and how his mission has changed him. Which made me realize that I wanted to change. I wanted to feel the spirit again. I wanted to be able to serve a mission, if it's the right thing. I want to be happy with myself again. I want to change. I want to have the light of the gospel again, so I can spread the good in me to others.
"You are good. But it is not enough just to be good. You must be good to the world. The world must be a better place for your presence. And the good that is in you must be spread to others." ~Gordon B. Hinckley
"Everyone sees who I appear to be, but only a few know the real me. You only see what I choose to show, there's so much behind this smile."

Livin' the College Life.
I absolutely love Snow College! I wasn't sure at first, but now I'm positive that this is the place I'm supposed to be. And it doesn't hurt that I've made some pretty great friends already too. ;)

Food for the Thought
So I know its been a couple months since I last posted. I am very determined to do better from now on. Since I don't have much to say right now I'll just leave you with some food for the thought. :)
"It's about how you're like a lighthouse, always searching far into the distance. But the thing you're looking for is usually close to you and always has been. That's why you have to look within yourself to find answers instead of searching beyond." ~Susane Colasanti
And I like this one too :)
"Passion is passion. It's the excitement between the tedious spaces, and it doesn't matter where it's directed...It can be coins or sports or politics or horses or music or faith...the saddest people I've ever met in life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all." ~Nicholas Sparks
