Since I was young, I have always known this: Life damages us, every one. We can't escape that damage.
But now, I am also leaning this: We can be mended. We mend each other.

Wisdom Teeth



I had my wisdom teeth taken out last Friday. The photo on the left is a pretty accurate description of what my face looked like. Cute, eh? It was not actually that bad. The worst part is the liquid/soft food diet that I'm on...still. I can eat mostly...I just cannot chew on the sides of my mouth and since it takes forever to eat using my front teeth...I'm still on the liquid/soft food diet. Yum!

Words from an apostle.....



"If for a while the harder you try, the harder it gets, take heart. So it has been with the best people who ever lived."

"Don't do anything stupid." (I like this one.)

"Love. Healing. Help. Hope. The power of Christ to counter all troubles in all times-including the end of times. That is the safe harbor that God wants from us in personal or public days of despair. That is the message with which the Book of Mormon begins, and that is the message with which it ends, calling all to 'come unto Christ, and be perfected in Him.' Moroni 10:32

Good Reads

Sometimes I just need to be reminded of a few things. I bought this book a couple years ago, read it and loved it. Then I put it away and have not really given it much thought...until recently. I picked it up again and am again reading it. I recommend it to anyone who has hit kind of a slump in life, who feels a little depressed and cannot seem to pick themselves up.
