“Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.” Andre Gide

Life sometimes takes unexpected turns.

Like working in a place that I thought would only be a temporary solution to my immediate problem of being jobless.

Like marrying a geek from High School- one that I had always thought was kinda cute, but seriously weird.

Like leaving a job, knowing that it was my Father in Heaven telling me to "get outta dodge" before some serious dootie hit the fan.

Like doing a favor - and finding it worse than you thought it would be.

Like having a plan and then being told that your plan, while good, is *not* the plan your life is going to be taking.

But I have faith and trust that my Heavenly Father loves me.  And that if I do as He wills me to do, that He will never leave me alone to flounder in this world. 

Life is scary at times.  But I am not afraid- I mean, I am, but I know that it will all work out. 

President Hinckley said:

"Everything Will Be Okay in the End. 

If It's Not Okay, It's Not the End."

I know that is true.  I know that there is nothing on this Earth or in life that I cannot conquer over.  I know that I was blessed to be married to my best friend- who happens to be the sugar to my vinegar. 

Life takes unexpected turns.  I just hope that when I get to the curve, I kinda already know why it's there.
