I had an epiphany today while sitting in the oncologist's office. There's so much talk and paraphernalia about finding cures for cancer. There's bitter talk about why Heavenly Father would allow such suffering. I sat there thinking to myself, No. My heart tells me it's not like that at all! ... Think of the communities and families that have come together to love, serve, and mourn with one another.

Our Father in heaven provides opportunities every day for us to keep his commandments, to follow His ultimate example of serving, loving, caring for His spirit children, our spirit brothers and sisters. I get to experience firsthand on a daily basis how beautiful the hearts of mankind really are.

Turn off the news of contentious politics, crime, and adultery for a bit. You'll find a world of compassion. PLEASE ACCEPT MY GRATITUDE to all those who uplift and show me what leading a Christ-like life is really all about. Loads and loads of LOVE!!!

  1. Congrats on 10 years! Long time no see or talk. Hey, I tried to e-mail you but I guess it is an old one. Well, I had a question for you. I just got called to be the young women's president in my ward. Crazy, huh? I really don't know why they called me. I was wondering where you found that personal progress poster. I know you made it, but is there somewhere I can find it. Where did you get the template for it. Just wondering it was a good idea. This comment was actually meant for an e-mail, so feel very free to delete it. Hope you are doing well. E-mail me so I can have your new address. Thanks Lindsey
