“The only way to get through life is to laugh your way through it. You either have to laugh or cry. I prefer to laugh. Crying gives me a headache.”
“I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails.
I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp.
I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches
for a sick neighbors children.
I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden.
I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my checks and the tears of a friends on my shoulder.
I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."
“The trick is to enjoy life.
Don't wish away your days, waiting for better ones ahead.
The grand and the simple.
They are equally wonderful.”
President Hinkley is the first prophet that I remember listening to and loving. I love his wife and all she has to say, and the reminders that she has of living a good life. She's inspiring
