So lately I have been having a desire to move far away from "Zion". It just stopped feeling like home like it once did.
BUT!!! To make things clear, I do not plan on moving. I have just decided that I need to make Utah feel like home again.
Home to me...Home is a place I feel accepted. I think I felt so accepted in Utah for so long is because I was an all star Mormon. Active members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints feel very accepted in Utah. The hard thing for me now is that I believe God wants more for me than just being a member of a church. I believe he wants me to use my talents to help all kinds of people around me.
Church may not be my whole life anymore, but know I still know God and love Him. I also know he loves me.
My quest now is to find people around who will accept me for who I am rather than for a cookie cutter Utahan. Hopefully if you are reading this, than that is you.
Also, a note to my great friends who I have failed to be a good friend to, please forgive me. With change comes heartache, and sometimes the people I want to be close to, are the ones that I don't want to see me in pain.
If you thought the last post was awesome . . . . .
