I...Hi David, I agree with your observations here. I think thAt many of us expect to find our own happily ever after. And when we don't find it we think we have done something wrong. But actually we probably done everything right... our life is journey full of darkness and light. Both gives us experience- -- and that's what we are really here gathering... and thru it all learn how to unconditional love ourselves and others.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08713422102271859818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2780506856626441160.post-62091311008460317512016-08-12T16:08:07.693-07:002016-08-12T16:08:07.693-07:00You are wise beyond your years. When my "happ...You are wise beyond your years. When my "happily ever after" collapsed and my life seemed to fall apart, instead of trusting in the Lord and holding on to the iron rod, I decided that since I had followed all the rules and was rewarded with an adulterous spouse, that I wasn't going to be LDS anymore. This only led to more misery, turmoil, agitation and despair. Through prayer and searching I found my way back and am so blessed. Twenty-six years later and still in the process of becoming. You have articulated what we all have to deal with in such an insightful manner. Hang in there. You are in my prayers.

It is hard when one sees that things are not going to work as we had hoped, but when we "become" like God, I think we learn to trust Him and to know that everything will be okay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2780506856626441160.post-18733501579302572832016-08-07T19:54:12.310-07:002016-08-07T19:54:12.310-07:00Thank you for this post.

As a 32 year old never been married person in the church, it's definitely difficult because it does seem like everyone else my age has their happily ever after. I always need the reminder to work on myself first. Thank you.

I know that you WILL find your happily ever after, maybe sooner than you think. I've seen it happen for several people in your situation, and they have created incredible families and lives, because they stayed true to the faith. <br /><br />Thank you for your stalwart example, and helping others believe!!Wendy Wilson Spoonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09515212715988837099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2780506856626441160.post-7430024975920511482016-08-07T09:58:29.087-07:002016-08-07T09:58:29.087-07:00I really enjoy the posts I read. Thank you for sha...I really enjoy the posts I read. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, experiences, and life. One of the things I have come to believe is that charity really is the answer. God's life is not Disney perfect either. How many of his children live him? How many hate him? And how many are indifferent to him? Yet he loves us anyway and, I believe, satisfied in that love. He rejoices and sorrows with us, but that love is what, I believe, gets him through our lives. His happiness can not be dependent on me. That is why becoming like him is the point of life. I am right there with you, while there is no Disney perfection, there is something to strive for. :)<br />georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03998467797483801864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2780506856626441160.post-65085596018065720032016-08-07T08:57:15.973-07:002016-08-07T08:57:15.973-07:00Thank you so very much for your honest and well th...Thank you so very much for your honest and well thought out perspective.
