This is my missionary badge: an embodiment of a lifetime of dreaming and preparing. In the years leading up to my mission, this badge was very much my own Holy Grail--so far away, so legendary, as I quested with great effort to obtain it. Well, after a long journey I finally won my prize, and for two years, wherever I went, so did the badge. It identified me in more ways than I can describe; and indeed, no other item has ever so completely illustrated who I was. I love my missionary badge.
