Happy Valentine’s Day! I wish I could
say that today was something special for me, but not really. I had class, took
a test, and had dinner with the rest of the Spanish house. Nothing out of the
ordinary. That being said I’ve felt a lot of peace today and I’m not sure why.
You’d think that on a day that is meant for people in a relationship that I would
be kinda down (especially since that can be the norm for me some days). Maybe I’m
too content being single (not likely). Or maybe it’s something else.
I mentioned to one of my friends
(Benjamin)
that I’m taking an LDS Marriage/Family class this semester. He told me taking a
class about dating, marriage, and stuff would drive him insane. Normally, I’d
think so too. Yet that’s not the case. Instead I’ve enjoyed it a lot. By no
means is it a marriage prep class (though if you were to go to it with that
intent, it’d work). Instead, it’s a doctrinal class about the purpose of
marriage and family. You’d think that for someone who finds it hard at times to
be attracted to girls, it’d be really annoying. Instead, it’s given me hope in
order to find the daughter of God that I will take to the temple. More than
that, I’ve learned things that will help me to know how to treat her right.
I’ve got a lot of emotional and
mental baggage and I honestly feel like it’ll take someone amazing to overlook
that. To overlook my autism, my SSA,
my anxieties, and my goofy looking face. Someone prepared by
the Lord. Someone with unfathomable amounts of charity. I look forward to
finding out who that will be and I pray that I will be worthy of her. Until
then, I will do my best to trust in the Father’s plan and take my search one
day at a time (or one date at a time).
Looking forward to a future day with a beautiful girl beside me at a temple like this |
