Life isn't about just hanging in there, it is about moving forward until you become all that you can become.

Once again, the question arises...

So, a month has come and gone and I haven't written anything. I apologize for my idiocy. It has been a month of many ups and downs (more ups than downs) and I was able to see a lot of my ol' friends.

One of my best friends since high school, Theron, was able to come down with his wife and I was able to spend a couple of enjoyable hours with the man who never ceases to make me laugh. I seriously don't know how he does it, but that kid needs to make it on the big screen some day. I also had no idea that his wife was more obsessed with Disney than I was. Crazy. I was also able to see an old high school friend, Lindsay (Gunnel) Gassins with her family. Last of all, I was able to spend some great quality time with some of my great friends from Florida. If it weren't for them I probably wouldn't have made it through that "growing experience". Thanks to them I was able to have a few days of just pure playing and relaxing. Thanks ladies!

On the other side of the coin, it has been a really tough transition for me here. As far as work goes, I love it. I don't love how they have me under a microscope all of the time, but I love being able to prove myself to this company. The ward and social life have been the toughest. I have never moved into a place where being outgoing can be considered distasteful. Maybe it isn't even that, but people aren't too willing to go out of their way to introduce themselves to me, so when I try to do introduce myself, I just kinda get snubbed. It is interesting to me that those who are not members of the church have been more open to me than those who are.

Not only has that been tough, but because of this I have started to doubt my decision to come out here. I know that I am in the right place, but, I sometimes wonder. At least one aspect of my life is progressing right? That's a good thing. Anyway, it was super fun to see some of you and I guess we will see where I go from here! Not to sound lame....I just know that the Lord will lead me, guide me, and walk beside me as I continue to strive to do His will. Life really is a wilderness, and like Nephi and Lehi of old, we must be willing to allow Him to guide us through the wilderness.
