Life in Transition : i'll meet you young and free for a dance 'round the memory tree
http://meganbethadventures.blogspot.com/2015/08/ill-meet-you-young-and-free-for-dance.html
Monday, August 17, 2015. I'll meet you young and free for a dance 'round the memory tree. I promise that I'm still alive. I just haven't been in the mood to write lately. Like, I have things coming. I can feel them in my mind and in my heart. Thoughts from things I've read. I sometimes wonder if purgatory is just a long line in a bureaucratic office where you never move. Ever. A long, never-ending line without phone service or Wi-Fi. Queues in bureaucratic offices in general. A special circle of their own.

Life in Transition : But a very, very cute drowned rat.
http://meganbethadventures.blogspot.com/2015/08/but-very-very-cute-drowned-rat.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2015. But a very, very cute drowned rat. Last Friday I decided to join the ever-lovely Amberlea at the Salt Lake Temple to worship there. As I was driving up to Salt Lake, ominous grey clouds gathered from the west and they were moving fast. The weather report promised severe thunderstorms and hail. I was hoping to get to the temple before the worst of it started. Nope No such luck. And there was no sign of it letting up any time soon- goodness, it had just started. I couldn't see bec...

Life in Transition : April 2015
http://meganbethadventures.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 30, 2015. The end is where we start from". What we call the beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from.". TS Eliot, " Little Gidding. Last week, I graduated from BYU. There still are no words to describe everything. So I think. I think the best way to record this is through pictures. Pictures and poetry. And a bit of prose. And sentence that is right (where every word is at home,. Taking its place to support the others,. Of timele...

Life in Transition : January 2015
http://meganbethadventures.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 30, 2015. The hills are alive. This is what it feels like when you drop a pointless, time-consuming class that doesn't even matter to your major or future life plans:. Best decision I've made all week. Too cool for school. Thursday, January 15, 2015. Just a little war and peace. We've started reading War and Peace. In my Tolstoy class. We're only 115 pages in. There are 1337 pages. I am so excited. It's one of those books that just dares you to try. And he makes the prosaic beautiful.

Life in Transition : August 2015
http://meganbethadventures.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 30, 2015. Oxford (aka HOGWARTS) packing list. Part of going to Oxford means that you get a packing list eerily similar to one belonging to a 4th year Hogwarts student. For example, did you know that I have to buy robes? Like, I have to wear black robes to events like matriculation. I HAVE TO WEAR ROBES TO SCHOOL. I AM BASICALLY GOING TO HOGWARTS. And yes, I have now turned into that annoying American girl who will compare everything to Harry Potter. Sick of me yet? And I found the. I'll me...

Friday, July 31, 2015. Yer a wizard, Harry.". This is what happens when you give me Harry Potter glasses and a wand on Harry Potter's birthday:. But really. Love Harry. Love J.K. Rowling.

Life in Transition : November 2014
http://meganbethadventures.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 26, 2014. Only the beginning of the journey. Three years ago, I received my mission call to the Ukraine Donetsk Mission. This is probably my favorite picture from the day. :). Three years is a long time. There is so much that has changed over that time. For one, my mission doesn't exist anymore. Which is heartbreaking to me and I pray every day that there will be peace in Ukraine. Three years ago, I didn't know what I was getting into. It didn't feel real to me. I didn't know ...It's ...

Life in Transition : May 2015
http://meganbethadventures.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 31, 2015. Two of my favorite songs in one:. What's in a name? Once upon a time, Katy returned from her mission to Villahermosa, Mexico. The day she was getting back, my mom sent Sarah and I to get some poster board from Wal-Mart so we could make "Welcome Home" signs. Well, when we were there, we also saw a very colorful pinata. And it called out to us:. Bring me home," it said. "Bring me home to Katy.". And I named the pinata Bob. And after a "Kevin's a GIRL? Moment . . . Because, why not?

Tuesday, December 30, 2014. Just some pinterest words of wisdom. Because sometimes it's surprisingly right on:. It's kind of hard to read, so here is what it says:. Please hear me, Girl: The world has enough women who know how to do their hair. It needs women who know how to do hard and holy things.". I think that is beautiful. And although I think it's possible for women to know how to do their hair and. Do hard and holy things, doing hard and holy things needs to come first. Thursday, December 25, 2014.
