What Matters Most...

I've had this thought on my mind in the past couple months. What really matters most? A few ideas have come to my mind...

What matters most isn't temporary.It's not something that is new or something just from our generation. The things that matter most have been in every generation. This cuts out my iPod, my red heals, and my toaster oven-probably my favorite kitchen appliance.

What matters most will matter most yesterday, today and forever.

Ya know those first two folks on the earth? Adam and Eve? They are a symbol of what matters most: Family.My mom would always say that after high school, you don't talk much to your friends, but your family is always there. A while back, times got a bit tough, okay, a lotta bit tough. I KNEW this experience was to teach me what matters most. When the bumpy road came, I constantly was getting sweet telephone calls, thoughtful texts, and cute cards from my fam. During the bumpy times, you realize just how AWESOME they are.

So... I started this posting last week. Some friends ended up coming by to visit. You'll never guess the next topic I was typing about- People.I decided to "walk the walk" and enjoy the people I was with, hence this blog is a little late. People are what can truly make us happy; they are ETERNAL.

I want to express one more thing which matters, which I will express with a little story. One lovely morning in our lovely little kitchen, one of my dear roommates was reading her scriptures. She reads with her iPod playing the audio. She had some lovely (there are a lot of lovely things in this story :) ) oatmeal she was enjoying for breakfast. All of a sudden, her oatmeal took a turn for the worst. It took a dive onto her scriptures and her iPod. She quickly went to work cleaning off her scriptures. In that split second she probably didn't even think about it, but her priorities were shown. She cared more about the scriptures than an iPod. In essence, things of God really matter- scriptures, praying, and obeying His simple commands. They really make us happy :)
