Yay, another wedding in our family. This time is tia Norma and tio
Franklins grandson. Jeanny’s son Kevin. He went on a mission to Costa Rica and
has lived there ever since. What I am very impressed about Kevin is that he had
not had an easy life but he got the important things under control. His love
for the gospel and his desire to be a good person and to improve his life. He
is a true example that there should be no excuses to follow your dreams.
A wish I could snap my fingers and be transported
to the other side of the world like magic but all I can do is be there in
spirit. I couldn’t be there in person to
attend this young couples wedding but I do wish them the best this life has to
offer. I quote I love came to mind when
I saw their picture of their wedding. This quote came from a talk given a few
years ago which says:
“Have the determination
to make the effort, the single-mindedness to work toward a worthy goal, and the
courage not only to face the challenges that inevitably come but also to make a
second effort, should such be required.” –Thomas S. Monson
That is a quote that was given in a talk about the ABC’s of having
an abundant life. He tells us to have a good Attitude; Believe in ourselves,
and have the Courage to face challenges and to get back up when we stumble and
try again. When I think of a new marriage starting, these are the three things
that comes to mind.
Have a good attitude. Be happy with each
other! Believe in yourself. You can do
it! And by all means, get back up if you stumble!
Don’t ever say: “just isn’t meant to be” You
need to remember this day and how much in love you were if that thought ever
crosses your mind. You are not meant to give up, but to make a second effort. And
we need to have the courage to actually do that. “Whatever you do, you need courage.
Have determination,
work hard, and have the courage to face the challenges you will face and then
be wise enough to consider making a second effort…it might just be the smartest
thing you ever do. It takes courage to get married so young and I commend you
for that!
Cheers to a forever
lasting happy life!
Con amor,
Vero
