Expected hiccup

It has been a couple of months since I have blogged. And quite honestly, I feel that is because when I announced to the world (ok. ok, I know I don't have any 'blog followers' yet, but I am referring to the fact that I am writing on a public domain where someone could one day see it) that I was embarking on this quest I began feeling worse than I have in a long time. Worse physically, emotionally, and at times, spritually. Sometimes I find solace in the words of one of my heroes, Joseph Smith Jr, who once said
'It seems as though the adversary was aware, at a very early period of my life, that I was destined to prove a disturber and an annoyer of his kingdom; else why should the powers of darkness combine against me? Why the opposition and persecution that arose against me, almost in my infancy?'

At times I have felt that 'the adversary was aware' 'that I am destined to prove a disturber and annoyer of his kingdom' and 'the powers of darkness combine against me.'
