"When the Savior waits to greet you as you return with honor from your life on this earth and your Heavenly Father wants to encircle you about in the arms of His love, be there."
-Elder Robert D. Hales

I think to this point I've stayed away from religion as the topic of my writings. I don't know if that was in some effort not to alienate those people whom I know who do not share the same beliefs that I do, or whether it has just never really come up all that often. Whatever the reason, I chose to share the above quote because it made a deep impact on me when I read it. I was so touched by the loving imagery that is used. I really hope that it will be like that after death. That there will be a loving friend/savior/relative, someone who has missed me so much that I will just fall into their embrace and never let go. It's a very euphoric dream but I think that is why it will be heaven and not like life as we know it. Full of doubts and confusion.

There is so much potential in life. I'm not living up to mine.

Think He'll forgive us?
