Dear Reader,
Man, I am definitely slacking in the blogging area these past couple of weeks. This week it is due to NSO (New Student Orientation) at BYU. It is an interesting thing, because I got an email about it back in March or April and my first thought was, "Yeah, I can totally do that!" Come this past week when I got an email reminding me about it, I thought, "Man, ain't nobody got time for that." However, time was made for it and we had a great time showing around several of the freshman so they could find their classes and whatnot.
A saddening experience occurred, too. I kind of hit it off with one of the peer mentors at NSO and was hoping to ask her out sometime next week. On Thursday we were getting to know each other a little bit and there seemed to be a good connection. Come Friday night, I was sitting at one of the activities for NSO when she walks in, sees me and walks right over to sit next to me...with another guy. Who then proceeded to take her hand during the activity (It was watching a star show).
Heartbreak.
Oh well, life goes on. The title of today's post is a reminder to "Come Sail Away" with our Savior, Jesus Christ. I've been trying harder this past week to come closer to him through scripture study and prayer. Man, it definitely makes a difference in how my days go. I have felt so much better and the days have gone so much smoother. I am glad I have friends that help me maintain these endeavors and encourage me to become better by following the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Let me extend the invitation: Come Sail Away With Me!
