"Love is what inspired our Heavenly Father to create our spirits; it is what led our Savior to the Garden of Gethsemane to make Himself a ransom for our sins. Love is the grand motive of the plan of salvation; it is the source of happiness, the ever-renewing spring of healing, the precious fountain of hope. As we extend our hands and hearts toward others in Christlike love, something wonderful happens to us. Our own spirits become healed, more refined, and stronger. We become happier, more peaceful, and more receptive to the whisperings of the Holy Spirit." -Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Just a little note today about love. I read this quote by Dieter F. Uchtdorf and felt inspired. I have a certain teenager right now who is absolutely out of their mind insane and crazy. LOL I'm at a loss as to what to do. This person is rude, dis-obedient, has no respect for their mother, mean, angry.....and ultimately I think sad. Ok...dang it! I am going to love this person better...maybe?.. :-/ Sometimes I wonder...and sometimes I want to throw up my hands and walk away...but that would be weak....wouldn't it??? (Light bulb moment!) So this is why my Mom and Dad have wrinkles and gray hair and many, many other unslightly blemishes and unknown health problems and ailments....and maybe a few ulcers.....I can definitely feel an ulcer coming on!!! Ugh...today when this certain teenager arrives home I am going to give (this person) a good swift kick of LOVE.... ;-) Have you ever heard the quote "A person needs loving the most when they deserve it the least..." whoever wrote this forgot to add... " and when its the hardest dang thing to do because they are acting like a dang spoiled rotten brat and I want to put them out on the front lawn with a "For Sale..Cheap" sign hanging around their neck!!!"
Seacrest out...
p.s. If you don't hear from me for a while....please...please come looking for me!!!! And be afraid....be VERY afraid!!! :-D
p.s.s. Ignore my lack of grammatical correctness....I'm not trying to get graded on this assignment...I don't want to have to go back and proofread...I'm just trying to have fun dang it!!! FUN! :-) heheheheh
