Some things NEVER change!

This last Wednesday night I had the opportunity to attend a dinner for the Young Women that are graduating and will be moving into Relief Society. As part of the program they had the Young Women express some of their concerns and worries for this new and exciting part of life. There were three points of concern that got me to thinking. I have determined that, at least in my own life, these three concerns still exist. Which led me to believe that they always will.

1) Will I be okay without my Family? I have lived away from my family for some time, served a mission across the world and love to travel. However, recent life questions have got me thinking the exact same question. I know I can do it, I have done it before. BUT can I really do it and do I really want to do it?

2) I don't know what I want to do with my life. Sure, I am a nurse. I have a career, not just a job but a career, that I really could do until the day I retire. BUT do I want to? Is there more out there that I should be learning and doing?

3) Will I be able to make it financially? And because I do have a career I also have an income, which does fit very nicely for a single person such as myself. BUT is this income going to be able to support me forever? What if I someday feel the need to purchase a house, a horse or a hummer?

Thus, I say to the Young Women that had these concerns ... WELCOME! These concerns never go away yet somehow we make it. We just have to continue on and they work themselves out.
