Everybody tells themselves stories. Anyone who isn't perfect is telling themselves imperfect stories.
We all need someone who will listen to the messages coming from Heaven and observe and help us get rid of those incorrect stories.
The most important relationship to me is with my God. Next is my future wife and I hope she is not letting the stories she tells herself become her reality.
Do, become, do, become, do, become.
I'm breaking barriers, my friends.

The Valuable Thing In Life: You!
Hey peeps! This is the first of a string of posts on the things I've been thinking/learning about.
Money is wonderful. It is a representation of value. How much you are creating is a representation of how much you value yourself. Money abides by laws and when you do, it follows your command. Just like everything else in the world, when you learn and apply the principles of self government, it does everything you ask it to do.
Money = Value
View of self (value of self) = How much money you make.
If you value yourself high, you will find a way to make that amount of money. If you continue to value yourself at higher and higher levels, you will work to make the equivalent in money.
And vice versa.
And who determines how you think of yourself? The answer is quite simple.
You.
Your value is only dependent on what or how others think of you if you let it be. Don't let it be. It should be dependent on how you think of yourself. If you don't think highly of yourself...
Hi! My name is Dallin Hughes. I'm a life mentor. Let's sit down and talk over a nice cup of steamed caramel apple juice. I'll help you out!

My Special Spot
As I sit here in my special spot, my mind is filled with precious thought.
The enlightening elixir poured down from Heaven and into my chalice made from the purest materials, is encouraging me to drink. After all, why pour drink into a glass without the intent of letting it become you?
I encourage you to fill your cup with what makes you come alive. Drink from it.
I cannot keep up with my thoughts when writing and I am forced to slow, but what I am reminded of right now is that what you write is not always only for your intended audience.
I often look back on past blog posts and am knocked on the head for rememberance.
I also marvel at the imperfection in each post, but I don't change them and some people may wonder why.
I envision this blog as a training ground for things to come.
On a training ground, you may make a mistake, but no matter how hard you may try to perfect that skill mistakes will still be made and you cannot erase them. I don't try to. Instead, I look at my current work and look at my past work and compare. I see improvement and I am even more excited to move on.
When the day comes, I will walk back on the trail and pick up each marker and be satisfied that I left it there to move onto higher plains.
If I hated or even just disliked my imperfections, would I ever give them the nourishment they need to blossom into perfections?
Hate, dislike and discouragement are not synonyms to love, care and nourishment.
Love yourself and others as Christ would love you and others. He was the Ultimate example for how we should treat everyone, yourself included.
Then and only then, will you be able to create the best.
Come alive, my friends.

Agency. What a wonderful thing.
I think many of us forget what agency really means. Agency implies we have the ability to choose who's agent we are. It's important to remember that every act is an act as someone's agent.
I once had a discussion with a member of another religion on this topic. I remember they were very adamant about being independent of any Higher being, that he didn't need someone to tell him how to be.
Well, my thoughts on that are...
Why wouldn't we want to be an agent of an all-knowing, all powerful being who loves us and wants what is best for us? He didn't because he did not understand who it was he was serving.
It is so very important that this work be pushed forward, that Heaven and Earth may rejoice again with each other, that those people who would rather not listen to anyone may come to the knowledge of the love our Heavenly Father has for them and that man may be perfected once again.
You are always someone's agent, my friends. Think about who's agent you are and if you don't feel like you're on the right path, there's still the decision to turn around. Don't walk so far as to fall into the pit at the dead end of the wrong path. Let's be friends, yeh? Yeh.
I love you all,

Bear With Me
I really want to post a lot about what I've been learning and studying, but that in and of itself is a huge task.
I will do my best to simplify what I learn and share it with you.
I also want you to know you are loved and that love comes from many different sources.
You are loved by your Father in Heaven.
You are loved by Jesus.
You are loved by me.
There is only the smallest portion of what is going through my brain at this moment.
Bear with me, friends.
I will write.

The Feels
Marshmellow and cotton candy clouds above, the crunching sound created by dry brown leaves beneath my feet.
Clarity and purpose have been a constant today and I have experienced every small thing the way it is.
A vertical line from the earth to the heavens.
Eyes open and life coursing to the beat of my heart.
Clarity and purpose have been a constant today and I have experienced every small thing the way it is. It's not the my personality has shifted, but more that I have come to a place of clarity, confidence, contentment, purpose and desire.
My feelings today mirror those of a night when a tender goodbye was spoken. They are feelings of remembrance. Little specks of Heaven put together. A knowledge of an inevitable return.
I am independent and a sacrifice was made for my independence.
My chest swells with the knowledge that everything is worth it and that we will be happy.
Boy, oh boy! Cheers, friends!
