March 31st is a special date in my life because

March 31st has become a very special date in my life. On March 31st I received my patriarchal blessing which obviously has made a huge impact on my life, and given me such direction and inspiration and helped me figure out what Heavenly Father's plan and mission is for me.

March 31st is also when I left on my mission, I entered the MTC on this day. Ironically though I was called to go into the MTC on April 7 in my letter. However as many of you know they called me and asked if I would go in a week early and receive Welfare Training. So because of this phone call, March 31st again has had significant meaning in my life, as serving a mission completely changed my life and again gave me further insight of who I am and what my true potential is.

Now today is March 31st and I just did something that will forever change my life as well. I didnt even realize it until I signed the paper and got a special feeling, today is March 31st of course! I just finished filling out and signed my graduation papers so I can graduate in Dec. Interestingly enough they were due awhile ago, but I guess I was supposed to sign them on this day to continue the significance of this day and how each event has been life changing.

Now that this day has become so special, and I just recently realized it, I am going to pay much closer attention on what happens on this day. Lets hope next year on March 31st, 2010 I will be getting married. Wouldnt that be a great date considering all of the above. Let's pray that it happens!

Enjoy today for it is a special day!
