"I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully tailored clothes, my hair expertly coifed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbor's children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."

"I promise you that all who faithfully attend to temple work will be blessed beyond measure. Your families will draw closer to the Lord, unseen angels will watch over your loved ones when Satanic forces tempt them, the veil will be thin, and great spiritual experiences will distill upon this people. --Vaughn J. Featherstone

favorite quotes:
The only way to get through life is to laugh your way through it.
You either have to laugh or cry.
I prefer to laugh. Crying gives me a headache.
-Marjorie Pay
Therefore, dearly beloved, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power, and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance to see the salvation of God, and for His arm to be revealed.
-Doc. & Cov. 123:17
Do what you can,
with what you have,
where you are.
I may not have gone where I intended to go,
but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
-Douglas Adams
