The Healing Power of Forgiveness
by James E. Faust (1920-2007)
One of my favorite conference talks. This was the very last General Conference by President Faust. So very powerful!
The road
I love this road that I’m on
I’ve been traveling it so very long.
The scenery is pretty
and I have some good company.
I’d travel forever
never straying or turning, no never.
But that is not meant to be,
this road that I’m on is ending for me.
Never mistake a road’s end
for one that simply has a bend.
Yes, goodbyes may be tough,
but a new road is waiting for my love.
So, I will travel on
and advance down the road I belong.

Some things in life
