I mean, if I ever want to be rescued, then I need, I mean, my best chance of rescue is to get back to Utah.

And even if I'm not...

rescued, I'm at least physically closer to my home and to my family.

And so as they're saying these places, I just remember thinking, oh my gosh, what am I going to do?

And then I remember thinking, well, they use religion and God all the time to justify what they do.

And nobody needs to tell me that's wrong.

I know that's wrong.

But maybe if it can work for them, it can work for me just one time and then I'll never do it again.

And so I mean, I remember turning around and being like, oh, you know, I just have this feeling like this.

this feeling won't leave me alone, but it's like, we're supposed to return to Salt Lake.

But I know that I am just, you know, I am, I am too wicked.

Like I'm too sinful.

God would never speak to me.

God would never, like, I am just, I am just too unworthy, but this feeling won't leave me alone.

Do you think you could ask God if we're supposed to return to Salt Lake?

Because I know he'll tell you because, you know, you're his wife.

here's prophet and he'll tell you.

And you know, you, you are his mouthpiece here on earth.

I just know he'll tell you.

And honestly, if, if there was another miracle in all this, it was in that moment because then he turned around and he was like, Oh yeah, I think you're right.
