Our lives are the sum of each moment and interaction. Each day we work, eat, laugh, teach, play, read, remember...and work at it all again the next day. Within seemingly small exchanges we find opportunity to build relationships, develop character, find joy for the price of our time. Life's most essential possibilities are realized at home. Where we share, teach, grow, learn, serve, give our best without praise or fanfare. Because every effort, every moment matters in the development of a person. Nothing is really routine. I give myself for the good of my family and find the poetry within life's daily prose by Seeing the Everyday.
Brad and I were able to get tickets and attend the First Presidency Christmas Devotional at the Conference Center. We felt very blessed to sit at the feet of our Prophet.
I took this picture with my phone - very blurry - but at least we have something to remember.
"And that is how Change happens. One gesture. One moment. One person at a time."
