Last Fast Sunday, our meeting started out wonderful, you could really feel the spirit. Then the usual doomsday, soothe sayers got up and started to say how bad the world was and we needed to repent and prepare for the "coming of the Lord". Sorry to say that the spirit left me.
Robert and I talked about this quite a bit after the meeting. I said that it really disturbed me to hear them talk that way. He said that they (two brothers, who think they know everything about everything) always talk that way. We decided: There are so many good things in this world. We are so blessed with a wonder family. They are so caring and there whenever we need them. We enjoy the things that we are doing in our lives (farming, dairy). What more could we ask for. We do need to do our best, but we are going to enjoy our family, and enjoy our journey through our lives together.
Family is everything! We have a lot of work to do, but we are going to look for the good in all the "bad" around us. We know that it will be hard, but we are willing to try.
