There are many things about today that were special.  I guess that I have enjoyed several moments when I felt really good.  I had a few tired moments too, but I tried not to nap too much, and to take advantage of my Sunday.  Sunday does have a special feel to it, and I did have some of those moments.  Sometime I would like to have a dream like "Joseph Smith's last dream" which I watched yesterday and then again today.  That would be an awesome experience and I do have a little of that sometimes when I feel the emotion of my love for the gospel bubbling over inside myself.  It doesn't even have to be a Sunday for that to happen.  But certain videos that I have seen and certain things that I have read or things that I have been able to experience tend to 'do that' to me.  Today I got to hold my (our) newest granddaughter in my hands and reflecting on that does effect me.  Also, to have other grand children crawl onto my lap and hold on to me does too.  This gruff old guy does have some tenderness about him.  And I appreciated my blessing so much that if I let it, it tends to overwhelm me.  I do know better, but the skeptical side of me helps me keep it pretty much in check.  And it doesn't take much for me to realize that as wonderful as it makes me feel my own human part gets in the way too easily.  But I am getting better.  I hope that you can understand what I am talking (writing) about.
