Hey everyone!
So yesterday I finally got my patriarchal blessing it was wonderful. Most of you probably know what a patriarchal blessing is but for anyone who doesn't, it is basically a personal blessing that you only get once in your life and it tells of your lineage and it provides guidance and advice or whatnot for your whole life. Everyone's is different and unique to their own life. It really is an amazing thing to have, and to receive.
It's hard to describe the feeling of getting such a blessing that is meant just for you, it really is one of the more spiritual moments that I've ever had so far. It's pretty indescribable I loved it. I took my grandma with me and it was just a moment that I will remember forever.
I will be getting my mission papers soon and then I will be starting the process of going on a mission. I really can't wait and I know there are experiences out there waiting for me that I need to have. I've been through my fair share of hard things and I know that this will be the hardest thing that I have ever done so far but I really welcome it and it will make me become the person that I will be.
Well I guess thats my little blog for now. My life has been a whirlwind lately. I feel like I'm living in a tornado...I am constantly busy and I just don't have any extra time for hardly anything at all. That is kindof a good thing I guess it keeps me focused and keeps me doing something...things are changing really fast, probably faster than they ever have before in my life but at least they are good and productive things so I can't complain so much. Thats life right?
