lds church

I wonder what my life would’ve been like had I not joined the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints. Likely would’ve been the same it was before. I’m ok with MOST of the doctrines. Some I don’t agree with. My mom for some reason is including it in my life. I don’t mind it. It IS a life encompassing religion. I’m more of a casual and relaxed Mormon. Not a person easily controlled. I remember once I was asked if I liked pizza and I said I did. My home teacher and his wife brought me pizza. They were gonna have dinner with me and check on me and my welfare. My mom didn’t like that idea as I’m 21 and able to take care of myself. She came around as a neighbor (who isn’t associated with my church) was happy I had company. My mom is happy that I have something that I can have things I like. I love it because of the sense of community. My friends from church are happy about my baptism and I have a testimony. Something that they don’t know is how scared I am of not having my muscle spasms. They have been a part of my life since I was 3 years old and my church has been in my life for 2 years. I am making progress in my caffeine reduction as I need to for my health. My friends from church are happy to see me when they can. I’m sure they love that I can come whenever. My friends from church don’t know everything about me. They know what they see and what I tell them. They might not believe I have scoliosis. They might not know I’m nearly blind in 1 eye. They might not know I’m left handed. One thing I’ve got the chance to do is practice public speaking in church. It’s awesome. I’m fine now in that. My mom and dad like it as I’ve gotten better and have friends and have things to do. I of course like giving back to them as they’ve done so much to me. My mom encouraged it as my dad hasn’t.
