The human soul

* I just finished reading the Book Thief by Markus Zusak. I haven't been able to put it down. I was laying in bed early this morning, but I had to sit up because my ears were filling up with tears. The human soul is so amazing. There was a warm accordion playing man who takes in a homeless seven year old girl. He sits and holds her night after night when she wakes up dreaming about her younger brother who died on the train. He plays the accordion for her. He also hides a young Jew in his basement. He offers a old man in a Jewish death march a piece of bread and is labeled a Jew Lover. All things then change. There are so many books to read, and lessons to learn. Today I am thankful for my eyes, and these $1.00 glasses. I am thankful for my Book Club friends who have encouraged me to read.
* During conference I savored a Symphony Bar, this morning when I finished my book I had warm camels, salted peanuts and a crisp Golden Delicious Apple. What is the deal with me and food. It always comforts me in any situation.
* We finished the electric fence and put all Tom's horses out front in the pasture. They can run and eat to their content now. Tom was so tired last night.
* I love talking to Matt each night. Last night he made spaghetti.
* I miss Kelly's family!!!
* "For I am able to make you holy. . ." D&C 60:7
