Master's degree

This master's degree work, and my work on feminism have really opened my eyes to how much a culture has to change- how many deeply held beliefs, languages and ways of doing things- have to change to create Zion.

To be and to live as God wants us to, and how long it takes to change
and how long it takes to carefully prepare a people to be a Zion people, especially while we are still struggling with attachment to the world.

Phillipians

I'd rather be with Christ
than in prison
but at least I can
write to you here

for the ability to serve God
I will rejoice

+ hope you will too

I feel called to write

The prophet asked us to read D& C 25- advice specifically given to a woman, and verse 8 stood out to me "thy time shall be given to writing, and to learning much."

Since I'm finishing my master's in English this semester, I have been trying to figure out what is next.
In the back-to-school father's blessing, my husband gave to me this year there was a line in there about changing work or something. (I took note on the kids' blessings, but not on my own, silly me!)

So after going crazy all month of September, trying to figure out what to do next (and getting applications in) I decided to pray about my direction should be discussed during conference. Then the prophet asked us to read section 25.

I am trying to weave all these pieces together. What will the picture be?
