The following things bring me great joy & happiness.
The Gospel - I love
that Heavenly Father has a plan for my happiness. I came here to earth to experience life &
to grow from the challenges & trials that I've been faced with. I am still learning to make good choices
& follow the example of my Savior as I learn of Him through the scriptures
& listen to the prophets. I love
that He has made it possible, through his atoning sacrifice, for me to live with
my Heavenly Father again if I can repent & follow His plan. I love that I know that He lives, & so
can I. When I am gone, I hope my
children remember that I had a strong testimony of the gospel & that I
lived what I believe. This is one of my favorite pictures. It's called "Perfect Love." That is how I feel about Jesus & His love for me.
Myself - I love
that I am a daughter of God & He has given me divine attributes. I am confident that He knows me, individually
& personally, & He loves me so much that He sent His son to die for
me...this in & of itself tells me that I am important & that I am of
infinite worth. Someone that important,
that Christ would die for, is worthy of love...that would be me.

Family - I love
family, the one I came from & the one I've created. Family is the meaning of life...it is the
source of love. I wish I had learned
sooner to accept them as they are &
to show them more that I love them.
Children - I love
children, not just my own children & grandchildren - although they are
pretty special! I love all children,
they make me smile, they make me happy.
I love their laughter & their enthusiasm for learning. They get so excited about everything &
are full of wonder & hope. There is
something sacred & pure about a child.
Dancing - I love
dancing..."Everything is beautiful at the ballet." I learned as a young child that there is
beauty in movement & music. When I
danced, all my fears & worries seemed to melt away. Dancing is my happy place.
