Well, I decided that I wanted to start a new blog frankly because my last one I just wasn't very passionate about, but this one...wow, it's going to be good so listen up!
Isn't that the beauty of life? That we have passions, desires, and dreams? That is what I live off of! I love to dream and be passionate about everything I do. That's why I wanted to write this blog just for girls #sorryboys.
I am a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and I LOVE JESUS! Can I get an Amen? Even though I have dedicated 18 months of my life to the Lord, I had a time where I dedicated all of my life to sports, boys, and having a good time. For anyone who knows a Mormon missionary or sees us on the streets walking, we probably seem perfect to you, very well put together kids, and have all our priorities straight. That's at least what I thought of the missionaries who taught me and who would visit with my family. When I got to the mission I had a big REALITY CHECK...we are far from perfect!
I'm going to really honest and pretty blunt about what I post on here. Even though I'm a missionary now, before my mission I lived a life in the fast lane. My life was, lets just say, a little bit on the wild side. I've been where a lot of parents don't want their little princess to go. I've experienced a lot in my short 23 years. The best part about it is that I have come out of it for the good!
I want all the girls in the world to know that someone knows what they are going through!
This world is such a beautiful but ugly place to live in. There are so many traps that us girls can and probably will fall into but the beauty of it is that WE CAN CHOOSE. Our Heavenly Father has given us agency (or the ability to choose) which enables US, not anyone else, to choose what we really want to do.
I know it's hard. I know there is that one cute boy who maybe your parents don't want you to date, or let alone even look at. There are all these kids asking you to do things that aren't what you have been taught to do. There is so much pressure to wear the cute new style that I personally think shows more of your skin than any random person should be allowed to see, and I am one that used to dress a little crazy! Are all these things appealing? I'm not going to lie, they were once to me but the question is...Why? Why do you want to be part of that?
My goal with these posts is to help all you sisters of mine to see your divine potential and realize that you are something so much greater than you think you are and have such a bigger purpose in this life than to become the most popular girl in school. I have found my purpose for my life and that I hold so dear to my heart. It took me a few years to get to that point but I'm so grateful for the journey that brought me here. I promise you will feel so beautiful, so popular, so worthwhile, and so happy when you find your true-self!
Look for my next post...coming soon! Things are about to get exciting!
