The Day After!!!

I wanted to go to Sam's party since I heard about it last year but wasn't invited. It was nice to be invited this year especially when I didn't go to Salt Lake City like I wanted to. It was well attended and no one parked in a nearby space that required parallel parking. If you don't parallel park in Hawaii you don't park so I'm glad I can do that while a lot of people don't even attempt that.

It was well attended by a lot of people from my ward. I went there close to 9pm.

I'm addicted to HGTV. I've always wanted to own real estate and rent the properties. I want to be in a situation where my work is minimal but I still collect money regularly despite having to maintain each property well. That's what I want to ultimately do so I can be a hands-on mother and still make money with minimal time expended.

I have to call my leasing company to replace my hang towel rung in my master bedroom. It just came off. VERY ANNOYING. At least I can call them and the worker can fix it while I'm here and not when I'm at work. I want to clean my bathrooms first including steaming the shower curtains before he comes here.

I have a lot of things to clean. I also want to bake and finish putting away and have a plan for my guest room. Eventually I want a Queen-sized bed in my master bedroom and at least a couple dressers. I want to transfer my Master bedroom furniture to the guest room. The guest bathroom already matches my comforter on my double bed. I also have another maroon comforter that is solid and will still match the shower curtain.

I'm watching a New York-based show. The apartments are INCREDIBLE. The decor in EVERY apartment is flawless. The money difference is VERY obvious. It surely doesn't feel like I'm getting married right away BUT I can't doubt what I was told. I will just be prepared no matter what happens.

Mosiah 10
13 And again, that they were wronged while in the land of theirafirst inheritance, after they had crossed the sea, and all this because that Nephi was more faithful in keeping the commandments of the Lord—therefore bhe was favored of the Lord, for the Lord heard his prayers and answered them, and he took the lead of their journey in the wilderness.

Deep-seated hatred among the Lamanites spring from what happened a looong time ago. Saaad. People AND I need to learn to let things go. If you can't let things go ultimately you end up hurting yourself. I'm glad I'm off today. I will enjoy cleaning and organizing stuff today ALSO setting up my TV to see if I can get my Zumba set up to show on my large TV instead of having to follow on my laptop BUUUT whatever, however. 

The Home: The School of Life - Enrique R. Falabella

“In the celestial glory there are three heavens or degrees;
“And in order to obtain the highest, a man must enter into this order of the priesthood.”1

The Lord has clearly described the attributes which should guide our dealings with other people. These are persuasion, long-suffering, gentleness, meekness, and love unfeigned.

However, we are still far from eliminating emotional abuse. The harm caused by this form of abuse dwells in our memory, it wounds our personality, it sows hatred in our hearts, it lowers our self-esteem, and it fills us with fear.
Participating in the ceremony of celestial marriage is not enough. We also have to live a celestial life.
The words “I love you,” “Thank you very much,” and “Forgive me” are like a balm for the soul. They transform tears into happiness. They provide comfort to the weighed-down soul, and they confirm the tender feelings of our heart. Just as plants wither with the lack of precious water, our love languishes and dies as we put to rest the words and acts of love.
In summary:
  1. 1. 
    The temple is the place.
  2. 2. 
    To contend, you need two people, and I will never be one of them.
  3. 3. 
    A child who sings is a happy child.
  4. 4. 
    I need you to hug me.
  5. 5. 
    I love the Book of Mormon and my Savior, Jesus Christ.
  6. 6. 
    It is not enough to know the scriptures; we have to live them.
I've read these talks so many times BUT still I'm not perfect in all of these teachings. It's the same thing with the scriptures. Until I'm perfect in everything I have to keep reminding myself through reading. As we fill our minds with these uplifting reminders and moments for the spirit to touch our hearts we improve naturally. Counsel received just makes sense. I don't need to be convinced. It's so obvious.
