The Purpose of this Blog

I’ve decided to start another blog…this one is mostly just for me. I was initially inspired by the movie Julie and Julia. I loved the idea of choosing a project and blogging about it. Rather than one large project, my blog will be focused on several smaller projects and goals that I am working on. I’ve set some “new year’s resolutions” that I’m pretty excited about, so I thought it was a good place for this blog to start.

This year’s goals include:

Run a 5K

Read 10 new books

Take more time for service (I know this is broad, but I haven’t decided exactly how I want to make this goal measurable yet.)

Read the Book of Mormon for 5 minutes a day (Initially I was planning on making my “spiritual” goal more along the lines of reading general conference talks and articles from the Ensign on a daily basis. I started doing this a couple of months back and have LOVED doing it, but since I serve in the Young Women's program and we challenge the girls to read from the Book of Mormon 5 minutes a day, I thought I ought to take on that challenge too. I hope to continue my frequent reading of the words of our latter-day leaders, but am not setting a specific goal in that area for now.)

I hope to use this blog as a means of documenting the things I learn, my thoughts, feelings, experiences, and my progress. Here it goes!
