Good Examples

I went to a stake Relief Society activity this morning and was able to hear my sister-in-law Heidi speak about rising up in strength. She is one amazing, strong, and courageous person. She has been through a lot in her life, most recently losing her 17 year old son, and I sat there completely awe struck as she talked about that experience with such grace and faith and shared how we can get through hard times in our own lives. It was a great meeting. It made me feel so grateful for my family. All of my family. Each individual in my family has had their own share of struggles and trials, but they all keep on moving forward in life trying to find joy amidst the grief. They all keep their perspective and know that this life isn't the end, and that there are much brighter days ahead that are worth sticking around for. The all impress me so much and I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such stalwart and brave people who make me a better person.

Heidi and I happened to be twins today :)
