As I sat here updating my blog I had a lot of feelings and thoughts going on that I wanted to share.
Mission time goes by so fast. Things change so quickly and you never know what's going to happen. I started putting in my updates as far back as December giving me the chance to see all that happened from that point to now. It kind of made my heart hurt. I loved my mission so much. There are so many people that I made friends and memories I created that I will treasure forever.
I grew so much more than I ever thought possible. Being on the mission I felt like I had stepped from one world into another. So many things felt so unreal and at times I thought I was dreaming. This felt especially true towards the last few weeks on my mission. I just wanted to wake up from whatever was going on.
I'm grateful for all I learned. For my strong resolve that I now have in the Gospel. My love for it has never been more firm. I learned to not be afraid of who I am and what I've gone through. I watched so many times as I shared my story and how many people it benefited. I never knew how many people I could touch until I went on a mission. I hope to continue to touch lives and to help people continually better themselves and grow closer to Christ.
I'm so glad I chose to serve a mission. That I listened to that call over a year ago to serve God. I'll forever cherish that time.
Thank you to everyone that has supported me and helped me along the way.
I LOVE YOU!
