STAKE CONFERENCE - ADULT EDITION.

I love stake conference!! Actually, entertaining/muzzling the kids for two hours of church is a beast. The first hour you're doing okay, then that second hour is a gasping, clawing to the finish line. BUT - Saturday night adult session! Church sans kids! I can hear the speakers! Regularly scheduled dinner date with the husband, guaranteed twice a year. GOLDEN.

My Facebook feed has been interesting today, vacilating between the usual benign day to day gripes and horn tooting, and reactions of disbelief and horror, regarding the attacks in Paris, Beruit and elsewhere.

How can anyone have that much hate? How can someone live and breathe with the ability in them to murder the person next to them? I just can't. I can't begin to fathom it, so I don't. I try to put a small piece of light back into the world to neutralize any darkness in my way. I post things like this to Facebook :



And I attempt to appreciate this life I am blessed to live. It could change in an instant, and I want to be able to say I didn't squander this piece on heaven I've been given while I have it.

Where do the kids stay during adult sessions? I really have to go back to those things now.
