Where I stand

Has it been a while or what? I guess the only time I write is when something traumatic has just happened. This semester has been amazing. I finally feel like I'm getting somewhere. Unfortunately it's also been a semester full of trials. 

I want you all to know that I know who I am and I stand for something. I stand for the good in this world. I stand for wholesome entertainment. I stand for every persons' dream to make something of the themselves while staying true to themselves. It can be done. Whoever says, "it will be easy," is a liar. I have really had to take a look into my heart and soul this last week and determine who I am and want to be. If we look at all our decisions in terms of eternal consequences it makes them easier. The problem is sometimes the immediate consequences for that choice are scary and full of unknowns. It wasn't easy to do, but I feel peace. The consequences, of this choice, are going to be both positive and negative, but the positives far surpass that of the negative. Today I took a step in the right direction and am proud to report that I am still holding fast to the iron rod. I'm so grateful for my parents, friends, home teachers, and patriarchal blessing that I went to for guidance the last few day. Thank you all for your prayers and support.
