My Maggie October

Well, isn't October off to a great start? For me there's been a football game, General Conference coziness, walks in the brooding fall weather, butternut squash soup, pumpkin ice cream, bon fires at the lake, and the Royals made it to the postseason. I mean, come on! Here's what I'm listening to this October.



Also, I've been thinking a lot about change lately. What's the right balance between speaking up and asking for what you want and patiently proving yourself? I think both are necessary, but for me, I have to follow my gut and speak when I have a nagging feeling that won't leave. 

I want to follow this counsel (my favorite talk from last weekend's General Conference):

But I also don't want to come off all millennial:


I guess the easy answer is find a balance between working hard, speaking up, and trusting in the Lord.
