Goals

I have a goal to read one conference talk a week until the April conference.
Here's my favorite part of the one I read today.

We may not know when or how the Lord’s answers will be given, but in His time and His way, I testify, His answers will come. For some answers we may have to wait until the hereafter. This may be true for some promises in our patriarchal blessings and for some blessings for family members. Let us not give up on the Lord. His blessings are eternal, not temporary.

I love this because sometimes, it is hard to wait on the Lord. It can be discouraging to try to do what we need to do. Sometimes, it is hard to hold onto faith when the things you have been praying for, sometimes for years, seem no closer to happening. But we can receive our blessings. in the Lord's time.

Quality Time

I discovered this summer that my love language is quality time. This was kind of a surprise for me because two years ago, I took the same quiz and my love languages were physical touch and words of affirmation equally tied. However, when I really thought about it, this made sense to me.
So now that I know my love language, I see how true it is in every way. If I want someone to know that I love them, I set aside time for them and put away everything else. The best gifts are handmade ones because of the time you have to put in them.
And I feel the most loved when I know someone is giving me their time. When they put away their homework or their laptop and just want to be with me. That is when I know I am loved, and when I am the happiest.
