For certain reasons I cannot leave yet, but it is SO hard to hold my tongue ! I am dreading DREADING going to stake conference and awaiting the return of an acquaintance from " education week " ( what a joke ) because they are SO TBM, and allegedly got to meet Elder Holland ( puke ) And their stories sicken me, their favorite is how God found their keys and that's how they know he's there blah blah blah and I am just fuming thinking - Oh how nice he decided to help you find your keys all the while letting children around the world starve- I'm SO done.
You don't have to go, it really is that simple. Spend that time doing something that uplifts you, whatever that is... Here are a few things I do.
1-read a book 2-listen to a podcast or speaker about something you want to learn about 3-go for a drive or walk in nature 4-meet with some friends 5-find a different place to go on Sunday that can provide for spiritual/social needs.
