Conference Weekend

I don't think I could have asked for a better weekend. Being surrounded by my family and good friends, I was able to get away from the drama and cares of the world for just a few days and really be spiritually fed. This year I took on the challenge to pray for answers to certain questions I had. I have always heard that you'll always find the answers in the talks that were prepared, but I never experienced it for myself...UNTIL this year. :) I think this last year and a half, I've really grown up. I feel like I am my own person, with my own opinions and most importantly, my own testimony of God's Plan for me. I have felt just about every emotion imaginable. From anger, depression, fear, heartbreak, sadness to the exact opposite of love, joy, confidence, eagerness, optimism and excitement. I have realized that sometimes saying goodbye is the only way to fully experience happiness. I have finally understood just a glimpse of what love is all about and can't wait until I find the right person to share that with. I have gained a knowledge at what a true friend is. I have met some truly amazing people, and some people who just weren't that great...but each person I have met has taught me some lesson that I needed to learn. I don't think that I will ever look back at this point of my life and not think about how things could have been, or should have been, but I will never regret the memories I've made with the people I care more than anything about.
