I am a Mormon.

I believe firmly in the Prophet and all that he says I hold true. I have all my life and will continue until the day I die. I believe in the power of being sealed. I believe in the power of he priesthood. I believe in staying true to what you believe and not be swayed but the way of the world. I will not be still and bite my tongue. When my beliefs are under attack I will defend them but not be rude. I believe that marriage is between a man and woman. I believe that we should be allowed to speak out and be outraged when the things we have voted have overturned. Because though we are not the ones to be he judge we are the ones who will be affected in the end by this decision. I know many will be offended or upset by this but I will not let those who do not truly understand how I feel get me down. I have lost many friends over this and I feel that in the end I am doing what I need to do. I will not be still while I have this burning inside of me.
