I want to see the world

and by see... I mean live someplace other than Provo or Redmond. Yes my friends. Its true I have never graced another city with my presence. I really have tried. I have made plans and saved money and applied and agreed. it just didn't pan out. My dad once wrote me a very meaningful letter once that talked about how "things just never work out for You" ( you being... me) and how he hoped that my marriage would be the change of that. Thanks for the brutal honesty pops. but in reality it holds true. I lack luck. I am not necessarily complaining- just thinking outloud how I try to plan wonderful amazing things. I set my sights on wonderful goals just like you are supposed to and other things just sort of are the result. Good things usually just smaller. I guess my vision at times it somewhat narrow. I have achieved all of my immense goals that I set out with. but not in the way I planned. I guess I am just noticing how as a very demanding, controlling, and independent person I am learning my place. Heavenly Father just sort of says uh huh yeahhh you keep thinking that and negates what little power I was certain I had... I am curious if this is how it is for everyone or if all the amazing things in your life you really planned. Just curious.
