i have sat here over and over again....thinking of what to write.
i have written posts....then deleted them.  this has gone on for about the past 3 months.

i have a love/hate relationship with blogging.
i used to want to make money off of my blog and get hundred of followers and readers.
i am a 20-something year old.
i am not in high school.
my blog is not a popularity contest.

my blog is me.
this blog reflects who i am and who i am trying to become.
i don't want to be too personal, but hey, no one writes the rules to the blogosphere.

life lately has been a big bowl of emotions for me.
i lost a dear friend, my best friend.  but she isn't dead.
rather, she is serving the LDS church on a mission.  #proudsistermoment

yes, she is my eternal sister.  i love her dearly and miss her every minute of every day.

i have gained a new best friend. Mister S.  i love who i am when i am with him.  he gets me.

i have made several new friends.
i have become a teacher (a church teacher), which is the scariest thing, but the most rewarding thing for me.
i have developed deeper relationships with my grandparents, whom i love and adore.

my life is a journey.  a journey and not a destination.
my life is blessed.
i am happy to be living it.

andi is an amazing lady.
i am so thankful for a best friend like her.
andi is going to be serving an LDS mission!

i am so excited for her and so proud of her.
we got to go to the LDS temple with her a few weeks back and it was such a beautiful day.

i am so thankful for temples and the blessings found there.
we, as an LDS people, are blessed to have temples on the earth.

literally, for me, the temple is heaven on earth.

love you ands.

has it truly been almost 1 month to the day that i haven't posted?
what is this blog coming to?!

i have missed the blogging world, but then again, not really.
it's so freeing to not have to stress out about blogging.

i still love reading everyone's blogs, but i haven't made time to comment.
i am so sorry my dear friends.

how have you been?  anything new going on that i need to make note of?!

God's grace.

i am a happy lady.
God is full of grace, mercy, truth, and love.
i have been blessed with a wonderful family.
fabulous friends.
i have a wonderful job, which i love.
i love my roommates.

i am thankful for change.
there are some exciting changes coming up in my life and i am looking forward to those.
i have been struggling a little bit with trust God, but i had a great convo with a dear friend
who told me to give all my worries and stresses up to the Lord.
May I just say that it works.
God is so wonderful. 
He takes care of me and my little individual needs.
I know God knows me and my name.

I am so thankful for my religion and the principles and doctrine it teaches.
i am looking forward to becoming a better version of myself.

thanks be to God for His grace, mercy, goodness, love, trust, and friendship.

happy monday, dears.
