Mi Nuevo Perspectivo

Well........ To start. It's been about a month now since i've been living in Provo, and so far, i'm having a really good time, and a lot sooner than i expected. Part of it could be that I get to see and hang out with my best friends, some from home, a lot from the mission. It could also be that I get to check the music scene out here and feel somewhat inspired to participate in that myself in the near future. Or it could be that I have a job that i actually enjoy doing. Haha, I could think of a bunch of reasons to explain why is life is so awesome, but i'll just leave it as this. I feel like i've been able to keep up with the necessities like scripture study and prayer, and exercise finds it's way in my schedule too.

I do miss home, but I know i'm where i should be :) I'm slowly getting all my ducks in a row, and it feels pretty good that for the most part i'm getting it taken care of on my own. Time's been going really fast lately and i'm having trouble remembering everything i've been doing these days to make sure it all happens how it should. Maybe i should write down things a little more often.....

I had the chance to go to the Sunday morning session of General Conference thanks to an extra ticket from Danny. Not gonna lie, I was dozing off a bit during it, but I was still able to remember what stuck out to me. It seemed to me that the main themes were about service, Temple attendance, and(of course) marriage. I'll have plenty of "repenting" from the occasional shavings i got from our General Authorites, but isn't that what it's all about? Just some reminders for us to stay on track. It's always the same things that are repeated, just with prepared insights that just might get to us more than before. These next few Sunday's are going to most likely be preparing us for Easter, which is a good thing.

So, since i've been up here i've had lots of alone time to think about life and what's around me. I've just been trying to understand why people do the things they do and try to notice what I do myself and why. I love how unique everyone is, from what type of food they like to their preference in style and opinions on life in all different ways. I think I have something to learn from every person I meet in this life and that there's a reason I was born at this time as well as everyone else in my path. We may not all agree on the same things, but slowly we all begin to understand each other and have better judgement, which gives us better character in the long run.

Anyways, i'm enjoying life and what it's bringing to the table. I'm also trying to be a little more grateful for what I have and be willing to help those who don't have the same opportunities. Slowly but surely :)
