You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. some may be significant only to you. some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience. - President Hinckley

A visit to the temple

I went to the temple yesterday and did 5 inititatory names.  Then I had the opportunity to sit in the hall and wait for mom to finish hers.  I had about 40 minutes to just watch people....watch a shift change, watch the patrons come and go watch the Lord's work go forward full speed.  I loved to just sit.  I love the quiet buzz that is happening 24/7 in all the temples and can imagine that it must be that way at the veil all the time as people are passing from this life to the next.  AMAZING!  Anyway, the simple thought came to me "you are doing what you need to be doing"....this I feel was a direct response to the struggle that all women have....am I a good enough mom....and for me added to that- should I be working should I be doing something else.  Heavenly Father was very clear to me..." I am doing what I need to be doing."  I am grateful for personal revelation.  Grateful for the chance to sit and reflect.  Grateful for the temple.
