"The struggle of life is one of our greatest blessings. It makes us patient, sensitive, and Godlike. It teaches us that although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it. "

“True gratitude is an expression of hope and testimony. It comes from acknowledging that we do not always understand the trials of life but trusting that one day we will. …
“The more we learn about the gospel of Jesus Christ, the more we realize that endings here in mortality are not endings at all. They are merely interruptions — temporary pauses that one day will seem small compared to the eternal joy awaiting the faithful.
“How grateful I am to my Heavenly Father that in His plan there are no true endings, only everlasting beginnings.”
-President Uchtdorf

My grandma was the first in this series I created. This is her. I've been thinking of her a lot lately- about what she would think of this crazy time we live in and what she would say. Within these silent conversations I have- I always end up with a smile on my face. It's crazy to think how someone, near or far, can have such an impact on my mood, actions, and life. She is still so influential. She teaches me to be strong and resilient. She helps me with cooking- (I often think of the instructions she would say!) She helps me parent. She teaches me how to be goofy! She helps me feel loved. All these things I see, hear, and feel throughout every day.

"We can’t fully appreciate joyful reunions later without tearful separations now. The only way to take sorrow out of death is to take love out of life."

I touch your tears,
invisible fingers soothing your skin
I know you think of me so often
in the day, in the night, in your dreams
going into an empty nursery
knowing I'll never be there
but I am...in your heart, in your soul,
I shall always be
for you gave so unselfishly of yourself
Inside of you, you created ...
