Loneliness

   Isn't it funny how loneliness works. So often you can be in a room full of people and you soul fills lonely. Today my soul has felt loneliness. I often think there is two different types of loneliness: one of the spirit and one of the temporal. The temporal one is easier to fill. In my opinion, that second one is just getting up and going to do something. I would fill that loneliness by driving to visit with mom and dad. Or often just chit chatting on the phone with Rhonda or Ms. Shirley. How I miss those girls. Each one of them have added so much to my life. Shirley has taught me to enjoy the world and to think of things in a child like way. We are commanded to become child like. I love this about Shirley. Rhonda has taught me many things: patience and tolerance. I understand that she needs to be loved for just being her.
  The second loneliness is when your spirit needs full. That is mine today. I have this strong testimony about serving.  when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God,” (Mosiah 2:17)  I know my soul sings when I am serving. I don't care how it is that I serve. But I do know how much I miss it. I am so grateful for a Father that knows this about me. I am grateful for parents who taught me to serve by example and by word. Tomorrow my soul will be better. I do believe a temple trip might be exactly what I need.
