You decided to think for yourself and consider whether the Mormon life was the only way to real and eternal happiness. I'm an atheist, but I was raised Mormon, and I can say that I was terrified of even considering that the Church might be wrong and that my entire life structure might be based on myth. That's the biggest risk of all since we're taught our very souls are what we are risking. <br /><br />Good for you sir. You figured it out a good 10 years before I did. Now, go take some risks and really enjoy life. Or as they said it in the London Atheist Bus Campaign, "There's probably no do. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life."ControllerOnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04161975934417545717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026956209772634897.post-29603467239662435892014-02-02T17:58:29.401-08:002014-02-02T17:58:29.401-08:00Baby steps!

It might seem like a minor "crazy" thing, but it gave me SOOO much confidence in what I can push myself to do. After that, other "risks" seemed not so significant. Risks are risky, yes, but sometimes the fun and danger and sadness and love and pain and bliss they carry with them are totally worth it. *fist bump*RexTremendaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12190270558257405755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026956209772634897.post-79433829449886016062014-02-02T17:50:51.772-08:002014-02-02T17:50:51.772-08:00I am so happy and jealous of you.

Was there something that finally clicked or happened to make you less adverse to risk?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12900720352902803908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026956209772634897.post-7512304390640974512014-02-02T14:30:13.990-08:002014-02-02T14:30:13.990-08:00This post 100% echoes my views for the upcoming ye...This post 100% echoes my views for the upcoming year: take risks; be patient.
