Embarking My Life

Hey there! I hope you're enjoying the new theme of my blog. I just needed something different. I have had an interesting experience since being home from my mission. September 10 marked not only 6 months of being home, but also my "field day", or the day I left the MTC and entered the mission field. We had a long flight the night before, and I had never lived anywhere besides Utah. It was more nerve wracking leaving Utah than it was becoming a missionary. As you know, though, I absolutely came to love the land of Tennessee, Virginia and North Carolina. Honestly, I grew to love it so much that I didn't want to leave!  That proves to me that you can come to love where you're at, it just takes some time. This actually brings me to where I've been the last 6 months. Flying back to Utah after 18 months of whole-hearted service for others has been harder than I anticipated. I missed my family and friends, so it was amazing to be with them.  - Pictures did...

Hello my friends! I wanted to share my thoughts of my new blog name and theme. Since I've been home from my mission, I realized that I need to be more proactive in my life. A large part of this was inspired by my mission where I was always going, always doing something. It was also inspired by the 2015 Mutual Theme "Embark in the Service of God" Our lives are full of adventure! I feel like it's the time in my life to truly EMBARK on adventure!!!  em·bark əmˈbärk/ put or take on board a ship or aircraft. begin (a course of action, especially one that is important or demanding).  (definition from Google) I just realized that I need to be more like this and take hold of my life.  Hence... I am Embarking my Life.
