Love Learning Life


I have resurrected an old blog of mine and is open to the public. You will not find a lot of names, places or details of our family here, mainly thoughts, encouraging inspirations and ideas for living a full and spiritually centered life.

I started this blog a couple of years ago but never really fully developed it. Since going private on our family blog, I have felt prompted to explore this more. The LLL blog was dedicated to the exciting challenge of learning from life simple and pure lessons. To look beyond the obvious or mundane and seek defining moments that have encouraged, inspired and strengthened me or the lives of others. One thing that I have come to realize with certainty is that inspiration is everywhere. If we are looking for it, desire to have it and doing our part to receive it, it will be given to us.... and I pray daily that I'll be paying attention.


"The truth is, those who diligently seek to learn of Christ eventually will come to know Him. They will personally receive a divine portrait of the Master, although it most often comes in the form of a puzzle—one piece at a time. Each individual piece may not be easily recognizable by itself; it may not be clear how it relates to the whole. Each piece helps us to see the big picture a little more clearly. Eventually, after enough pieces have been put together, we recognize the grand beauty of it all. Then, looking back on our experience, we see that the Savior had indeed come to be with us—not all at once but quietly, gently, almost unnoticed."
