That is such a beautiful painting. Where did you find it? Who is the artist? I love this quote. I just recently finished reading In Quiet Desperation as I was searching for greater understanding in relation to a recent news I've had that my two best guy friends deal with SSA. I love them and I feel like trying to understand what they deal with has helped me to understand the atonement better. I realized that peace should exist within us no matter what challenges we may have. I see their struggle to battle with the opposing desires they have and I also recognize that I should be stronger, that no matter what trial I might experience, I have to be solid in the gospel and be happy with who I am. Thank you for all the insightful, inspirational things you post.
I’m a twenty-nothing who is trying desperately to figure out my seemingly complicated life that includes being a SSA/Homo/Gay/Whatever Mormon that has pathetically little control over my emotions. By day, I sell priestcrafts (“Have you heard of the new John Bytheway fireside on DVD?” It’s 20% off right now) to old women, who, in fact, think I’m quite endearing and buy four of said DVD. I’m going to pretend that the inverse of the previous statement isn’t necessary because I don’t think it’s any of your business what I do by night.
I’ve been described as “adorable, yet offensive,” (OriginalMohomie, 2007) and “Immature.” (Master FOB, numerous occasions) I am still in love with Natalie Portman, hooded-sweatshirts, and quoting movies. And just like my last “about me”, this one is going to peter out at the end. Just … like … now.
