while going over this, i reflected back on the lesson in relief society from church today.  I am so grateful for the opportunity that i have here on earth to grow and learn and become more like my Heavenly Parents. I feel that so often we fail to recognize their hands in all that we do. The blessings which we receive and the joy which we get from life, all stem from our Heavenly Father and His perfect plan for each of us. He has a plan of us as His children, but also we are able to know of what He wants us to do as individuals through blessings, or revelation. I wouldn't want to be anything other than a daughter of God-nothing could compare to the joys of being a woman, and the blessings which we receive, and give in return. How lucky we are as children of God to partake of His goodness and divinity each day as we strive to become more like Him and our Savior, Jesus Christ.
