Wow.

When opening up this post and loading the picture, I had the intent of just writing about my day.
You know, the usual.
School, doctor's appointment, and working out.
But.
I just found an article off of Facebook that I feel I need to share.

My college, Brigham Young University is known primarily for being a "Mormon" school.
BYU held a panel in which the students of BYU could ask panelists, what it is like to be a student at our school.

The panelists were homosexual and of the Mormon faith.
Wow.
That takes a LOT of guts.
To get up there, and speak to hundreds of people about your trials in life is extremely admirable.
I don't think I would be able to share the many trials I've experienced in my life to that many people.

I just want to say bravo to those students who were so courageous to speak out about their trials and hardships in life.
Our Heavenly Father loves you so much :)

And good on you BYU.
For showing that we should love and care for all of our Heavenly Father's children.
Makes me proud to go to this school.

  1. Wow indeed. I really like that they did this, especially since there's the perception that our church is intolerable of certain people. Thanks for sharing!
