de musings

I have a special green book that I fumbled upon this week. It's a special book that among other things contains my initial inspiration about my 18 month journey, and latter thoughts on coming to terms with the idea. As i thumbed through it, many memories came about how I felt so vulnerable in many ways but how I came to know what faith was on a much deeper level.

I'll share two thoughts: One is a poem. I fancied myself a poet I guess...ha no really I think it just helped me make sense of various situations and feelings around me.The other is a scripture that I absolutely love and wrote in the book.

1.

As the car came down the hill

the headlight beams revealed the

melodic motions of the heat waves

rising from the road.

The tall, severe street lamp looked on,

exposing the weaker flaws of the pebbles and

sticks strewing the street.

The puddles winked in the light and

added to the damp feel that clung

to sweaters and seeped through

shoes.

2. Alma 32:35: O then, is not this real? I say unto you, Yea, because it is light; and whatsoever is light, is good, because it is discernible, therefore ye must know that it is good; and now behold, after ye have tasted this light is your knowledge perfect?

>>>(light can be felt)<<<

friendship can be felt, family love can be felt, divine guidance can be felt, gratitude can be felt.

Happy Thanksgiving :)
