As I sat here after watching the movie "Charly" well during the last part of it, I was moved to heavy tears. At the end she's always trying to get her baby to say Momma and finally he does at the very end. I know it's not the same, but I realized that I wanted it. I wanted so bad to have that knowledge and love that I would have an eternal family. I realized I wanted it with every fiber of my being. I wanted to be the perfect mormon mom who had her family and faith. After the movie I started listening to Hilary Weeks and this song "Eyes of Faith" has always hit me the strongest. It tells me what I must do and what can come of it. I love the song and it speaks to me. I am so blessed to have the support of my family behind me. I know the lord has something special for me and that if I try and have faith I can have what I want most in this world now. Not my education, not my career path, or friends. I want an eternal family and I want to be with my lord in heaven someday. I want to be able to look at him and know that I am worthy of it. That's just what I had thoughts about.
