not your usual general authorities talk on dating...

this is one of the coolest talks i have ever read. i love how this guy is encouraging a long courtship... because i feel like so many mormons feel marriage can be decided after 2 weeks of dating... or of knowing each other.

Thoughts from a Mormon feminist...

I know this isn't coming right in the heat of the feminism storm that caught the attention of so many this past summer, but I feel like it's still an important issue to address. First I must say, I am not shy about my views or opinions. When asked about women's right's issues in today's world I confidently stand my ground. Women deserve equal pay, they deserve a voice, they deserve opportunities to grow and live and love. Feminism is designed to create equality. I am not below men, nor am I above them. I have been asked several times to share my opinion on the Ordain Women movement. To me, it's an interesting topic because I've been asking that very question my whole life. Why can't I hold the Priesthood? What is so wrong with my desire to serve the Lord through the Priesthood? I can remember passionately arguing with my mother when I was twelve years old; I just did not understand why women couldn't do the same things that men could in our chur...

I wont blame it all on teaching, but...

It took me a long while to make this post. First it took a while for me to realize I needed to write it. Then it took me a while to find the time and mental ability to write this emotional piece and then it took me a while to decide to publish it. So this is several months in the making, but here it is. This is the completely raw and unequivocal, honest and vulnerable story of me and my journey with depression. In high school and college I was always an exceptionally happy person. I loved people, my friends, my parents and, occasionally, my siblings ;) I was extremely active in my high school academics and choir program.

I considered myself to be beautiful, smart, talented and funny. I was, honestly, a very strong minded and resilient person. I loved my church and the relationship I had formed with G...

confession: im a druggie

JUST kidding. kind of. anyway. i have a dilemma. two of them, actually. they are: i currently cant decide if i want to go to bed or not. since the beginning of my summer, i have been working a graveyard shift and then sleeping during the day. welp, its 10:30am and im blogging while watching What Not to Wear, my totes fave tv show. (you know, beside Modern Family and Criminal Minds) I am not particularly tired, but i will later. but i hate bed time. gah. but the lady on WNTW today is kind of annoying. so im going to say goodnight soon. so dilemma #2 deserves a little bit of an explanation and background on my life. it all started about 3 years ago... during the summer after my senior year of high school. my bff, jamie, introduced me to some of the most wonderful movies i have ever seen. they are of course, the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I fell in love almost immediately and later became the proud owner of the entire trilogy due to a Christmas gift from some awesome roommates. I...
