Today our lesson in relief society was Elder Wirthin talk "Come what may, and love it". I love this saying. He said he thought his mother meant that every life has peaks and shadows and times when it seems that the birds don't sing and bells don't ring. Yet in spite of discouragement and adversity, those who are happiest seem to have a way of learning from difficult times, becoming stronger, wiser, and happier as a result. We can do this by Learning to laugh, Seek for the eternal, The principle of compensation and the Trust in the father and the son. It was a good lesson and one that I needed.
Also today a lady shared that she had been in the valley and attended a stake conference and Elder Bednar was there he told them that we live in perilously times and it is going to get worse. That we need to study Helman because it goes hand in hand with our time.
I attended the last two class of Pacific Institute this week. The one thought I got from it this week was the beautiful thing about goals is they release energy. Also death occurs when we do not have a goal and your subconscious knows it. so we need to be working on something!
Robin wanted to see pictures of my office so here they are. I was told this week that it is the same square footage of my (closet) last office but least this is square and has windows.

And it looks private. That must be nice. YOu need some pretty things hanging on the wall. I like your thoughts from the lesson. Ours was Lift Where You Stand. One of the sisters said it was like when we were taught many years ago to "Bloom Where you are Planted". Kind of the same theory. It was something we all need to be reminded of. I love RS lessons. Love you too. Thanks for putting on the pics.
