Last time that I was at Terry lees home.. I spied her little note book of interesting thoughts....So I got me a mediun size pink spiral note book..(so it is easy to find) and began collecting my own.....or someone elses thoughts...it is about 1/2 fulll now and I take it to church and if the talks get toooo boring during sacrament meeting.. I can read something worth while....
Neal Maxwell...."We knew before we were born that we were coming to earth for bodies and experiences and that we would have joys and sorrow, ease and pain, comforts and hardships, health and sickness, success and disappiontments. We knew also that after a period of life we would die, we accepted all that eventualities with a glad heart, eager to accept both the favorable and the unfavorable. We eagerly accepted that chance to come earthward even though it might be for only a day or a year. Perhaps we were not so much concerned whether we should die of disease, of accident or of senility. We were willing to take life as it came and as we might organize and control it and this withou murmur, complaint or unreasonable demands.
Sometimes that is a hard concept to remember. love ya robin

What a great quote! It brightened my day especially since I just had a gum graft yesterday. It is pretty glorious to think how bad we wanted to follow Heavenly Father's Plan. We sure miss you Grandma. I want to come and see you soon. Love you!
