Bucket List

So, last weekend my Lovie and I went to a movie called the "Bucket List". There were so many things in it that touched me about my life. There were questions brought up about Faith, Life, Death and Family. There were two questions that I remember hearing that I have thought about for the past week. These two questions are asked to the Egyptians when they died. This was to determine if they were excepted in to Heaven or not.

1. Did you have Joy in your life?

2. Did you bring Joy to others lives?


I have thought about that. Especially after my Relief Society lesson on Sunday.

The teacher talked about how we feel when we see our kids fighting. The over all answer was "we don't like it, it makes us sad, it hurts so much to see our sweet children, fighting." Then she said "what do you think Heavenly Father feels like when he sees the way we treat each other?" OUCH!

That comment, made me so sad. The world is so unfriendly sometimes, or we seem to notice it more. If only we could all be nice little boys and girls, can you imagine what this earth would be like? Just like HEAVEN! One day we'll see it and won't it be somethin?

Anyhow, that is my goal this year....to recognize Joy more in my life and by doing it...hope that someone will feel it as well.

JOY-ON!
