Big Day, Big Topics!

Well.... I've been up since 4:12 A.M. Why? Because my eyes popped open and my brain adjusted to realize that in 3 short hours (2, now) I'm going through the LDS temple for the first time. And, although I KNOW it's the right thing for me to do, and I'm ready....I'm still nervous! Just a new, unknown experience, you know?

Remember when I got baptized? Here comes the next adventure!


So, I couldn't get back to sleep and clicked a few blogs. Found this little gem. It's a good read, and the comments on it are interesting, too. Hope you enjoy.

    WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't know.... so awesome :) I hope it's a special day. It's so much to process -- don't worry if you feel overwhelmed the first time. I did anyway... you understand more every time you go. :) YAY!

    Oh I'm so happy for you and RJ! I hope you just enjoy being there and the feeling you get and don't try to remember everything. After my 20th time going I think I started to remember. :) I just love the peaceful feeling though,and I hope it's wonderful for you.

    Congratulations! It's definitely a big day, I don't blame you for being a little sleepless. And for what it's worth, it took me a few times going through as an adult before I could really feel the Spirit. I think being nervous about the unexpected got in my way a little bit. But now when I attend the temple I love how I feel there! Good luck!!!

    Katie, it's been a long time! Of all the posts I find it was this which lead me to read your conversion story. We have so many thought-processes and experiences in common practically down to our "ah-ha" moments during freshmen year. It's astounding, humbling, eye-opening, faith building. I'm so happy for you, let's stay in touch.
