First of all... Happy Valentines Day to everyone. In my own personal opinion, who cares if you have a "special someone" to share today with. If you ask me... it is a day of love. A day we can show love to whomever we please. It is a day where we can simply bask in the happiness of others, or of our own. As most people already know... I was blessed with the greatest mom around. She is the most incredible example to me. One day, I would consider myself the luckiest girl alive to turn out half as amazing as she is. I don't think a day goes by where she isn't constantly thinking of others. To me, my mom is an extraordinary example of the pure love of Christ. This past Sunday a boy in my ward spoke on "the pure love of Christ". It was an amazing talk. These last couple days I can't get it out of my head. Charity. Charity is more than ordinary love; it is everlasting love, perfect love, the pure love of Christ which endures for all eternity. It is an eternal love that is centered in righteousness. So much so that the person who possesses it has no aim or desire except for the eternal welfare of his own soul and for the souls of those around him. I am so grateful. So eternally grateful for life, and the opportunity I have to live it with the knowledge of the gospel. I am so grateful for family. Eternal life, and eternal love. I am grateful for my Savior and for the love he has for me as an individual. He loves me through my imperfections. He loves me through my highest of highs and my lowest of lows. He helps me through everything. Because of his love we are all here today with the incredible opportunity to live life to the fullest and to repent of our sins. We are able to return to him again.
Happy Valentines Day
