Women

It's been a week

 (and one day- but who's counting)

since this blog has seen any action...

I was busy.

I had to write a talk for church.

It's all i could really think about

or talk about...

my poor poor friends...

and children.

They were neglected.

they will get over it

they always do.

Until they are teenagers...

then they won't.

I spoke about mothers...

really a shocker...

since it's mothers day and all.

I won't make you endure my entire talk.

I have inflicted enough pain for one day.

but I will leave you with a quote.

When we understand the magnitude of motherhood, it becomes clear why prophets have been so protective of woman’s most sacred role. While we tend to equate motherhood solely with maternity, in the Lord’s language, the word mother has layers of meaning. Of all the words they could have chosen to define her role and her essence, both God the Father and Adam called Eve “the mother of all living”—and they did so before she ever bore a child. Like Eve, our motherhood began before we were born. Just as worthy men were foreordained to hold the priesthood in mortality, righteous women were endowed pre-mortally with the privilege of motherhood. Motherhood is more than bearing children, though it is certainly that. It is the essence of who we are as women. It defines our very identity, our divine stature and nature, and the unique traits our Father gave us.

Happy Mothers day to all those Women out there who spend their time nurturing anyone in their care!
