here's another formspring question and answer....
did you have doubts right before converting? have you had doubts since?
did you have doubts right before converting? have you had doubts since?
i have answered the first bit of this one before...
in "the letter"
"i had lost the confidence i had in my decision to be baptized and was so nervous i didn't think i would make it through the night. before i left my boyfriends house that evening he stopped me and said that he had forgotten to give me something...it was a letter from one of the missionaries father..."
it's funny how the spirit and the adversary work...
i had all the confidence in the world with my choice to be baptized...
but the night before my baptism the adversary tried to knock me down as hard as he could.
i am grateful for the love and support that i had and still have, or else my choice would have been much harder.
my baptism would still have happened, but it would have been much more difficult to get into that water.
as for today, and doubts that may have arisen...they haven't.
yes living a "mormon lifestyle" isn't always the easiest...
we live in a day and age where promiscuity and drinking is almost expected.
that is not me, nor will it ever be, but i am ridiculed for not being like everyone else.

does it make it harder to find true friends?
yes.
does it give me doubts about my choice?
never.
i know that my choice was the right one to make.
i know that i am where i need to be.
You're AWESOME!
