  1. Well I feel like I'm pretty much in the same place I was 4 years ago, not understanding how the spirit works with me, if I even feel the spirit, why I still continually have doubts. I thought they would have gone by now if I stuck at it, but here I still am. As for worthiness, I feel like because I have all these doubts therefore I don't "know" and therefore I do not qualify as worthy. I sort of keep a journal. I write in it every now and then, but that's about it. I have re read some of the things and feel like I have gotten somewhere only to be faced with all the doubts all over again and then feel as if yes I've still gotten nowhere. I feel like I'm not progressing because I don't think I feel the spirit, or if I do I don't recognise it. Also because I am still doubting after all this time. I just don't get it. I try to be the best kind of person I can be, I try to do all the right things and yet I still don't feel like I have all the pieces together. What makes you say that it sounds like I have obtained the knowledge?
  2. I'm not sure if there is a history of depression in my family, but I didn't think there was. If it was depression though would I generally be a happy person, because I am, it's just when it comes to the gospel and everything associated with it that gets me down, just the fact that I feel like I'm not getting it right and not understanding which is why I'm still struggling, I don't understand why this has gone on for 4 years now, I feel like I'm not making any progress.
  3. Hi guys me again... for those of you who remember me. I am still struggling with doubts and am unsure all the time. I live a good life (well I try to) I go to church every week, I try and read/study the scriptures every day, I pray every day and I still feel like I'm getting no where. I also have 2 callings. Relief Society music director and Stake YSA secretary. I am trying to understand but I feel like I don't feel/recognise the spirit, rather that I'm just plodding along in my life. I feel lost and confused and like I'm missing something but I just can't seem to catch a break. I want to go to the Temple, but I feel like I can't go when I have all of these thoughts, like I'm not worthy. What more can I do? I want to beat this, but I feel like I can't.

  5. So here's my dilemma. I've just finished my undergraduate course, and I have now gone into a masters of teaching, however I'm not entirely sure if I want to be doing it anymore. It may provide me with a good back up plan, but now I'm not so sure I even want it. I will have to study for another year and a half which isn't long, but I'm having trouble feeling motivated. I did my undergrad in dance, and therefore am currently enrolled in learning to be a teacher of dance in high schools, but I don't think I want to deal with all the syllabus and lesson plans and having to break down and understand every minute thing. This all looks likes its in the direction of I should drop out. What are your thoughts?
  6. Ok so several of you on here have seen me post about this dilemma I had for quite some time. I just want to know, is it possible for someone to have a testimony and believe in the church and it's teachings, but not realise it? Also, say someone isn't sure, can they still go inside the Temple? I know that they have the questions do you believe in heavenly Father and Jesus Christ, do you believe in Church, but I still feel like I can't say yes to them whole heartedly. I want to be able to go to the Temple, but I don't want to lie to get a recommend either. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

  10. Well I still would have gone for the walk, but he didn't seem to keen after the thunder came. I will definitely cash in on the rain check, however I feel that it will be a way away because I have my mother coming over for a week and a bit this week and I'm in my final weeks of uni so I may have to wait, better late than never I suppose. What do you consider to be "good weather"?
  11. So I finally asked the guy I'm interested in if he'd like to go on a walk. We had it all planned I was looking forward to it and then... thunderstorms... I HATE the weather... He invited me to his place instead to play boardgames, which I didn't really want to play but I was going to go, until his house mate decided to put a movie on, which they said I was welcome to join them, however I wasn't going to head over until a little but later and the movie was going on straight away. So I told them I would catch up with them another time. Anyway just had to rant and get that out, so peeved that I worked up the courage and all systems were go until the weather changed. At least he asked for a raincheck, but that's besides the point. I still hate the weather...
  12. Well I can say that the finished product does not look too appetising... I've been put off bacon for awhile now :S

  14. Haha, he's not my boyfriend Just been on a couple of dates, not sure if there will be anymore, but we hang out in a group of friends quite a bit so yeah. Thanks for your input Ryan, I just briefly thanked him in person, but didn't go into detail, and I will prolong the formal thanks. It's always good to get a males perspective on situations.
  15. Thanks guys, I think I'll do both, just another question with the letter/card, would you post it in the mail or give it to them in person?
