Today I decided that the biggest difference between now and then is stupidly in my comparison. I always thought that I was too young, and now I am too old, but I missed out on when I was like the little bear's porrige.
No more. I am the right age. I realized that I am old enough and am still young. I really ought not be wasting this opportunity away. True, I am young for my age, but that is a blessing. I get the wisdom that comes with age, and the beauty that comes with youth.
The next thought is regarding then and now, so obvious in Pres. Eyring's talk today. Maybe things are different now to help me or force me, as it SEEMS to do what is best. Peter was a fisherman then after Jesus left, he became a fisher again, sort of dismissing his life as an apostle to go back to fishing. The resurrected Lord asked, not in our vernacular though, "Hey Peter, what on earth are you up to? Are you resistant to understanding or something?"
Lastly, my mind has been preoccupied in a loop. Alot of people call it love, but I have an idea of how to show true love, finally. Obsession can remind me of my goal so I won't try to eliminate it. But, I am so entirely in love that it goes beyond wanting to be near someone or be with them even. I will be more concerned with their welfare and use whatever power I have to help, which probably involves me going away, as rediculous as that sounds.
