Missions and substance

My mission changed my life forever. I spent 20 months, completely absorbed in substance, not fluff. Some missionaries come home and shake that change off rather quickly. For whatever reason, I have changed for good. "fluff" makes life fun and enjoyable, but it isn't my drive, or reason for being... Consequently, I seek that in others. Those who are like-minded will find that in me, and not be repelled by a less flashy way of being. Some forget that real fulfillment isn't found in revolving our life around our "to-do" list of slightly inconsequential but urgent tasks, but around our "to-be" list. That is substance.
