I read the words of a friend again this evening. I remember them touching me, months ago. & here I am, completely overwhelmed all over again:

"Are you the person you’ve always wanted to be? Are you living the life that you want to live? I cannot promise that once you are baptized your life will be perfect, because no one’s life is perfect. Everyone goes through trials, and everyone makes mistakes. But if you’re able to go through all of those things and still know that someone, your Heavenly Father, will love you no matter what then why live any other life?"

Spoken like a champ, darling.

then why live any other life?
