Oh, this week! I think this week's lesson has been another witness of the things that should be more important in my life.

First of all, let me get it out of my mind before anything else. This coronavirus has been messing with my life in every single aspect.
- My son who turned 8 years old was supposed to be baptized yesterday. :(
- I won't be going to the temple this month (like I've been doing for the last almost 2 years.
- No meeting, no gathering, no sacrament tomorrow. This really made me cry when I read it.
- My husband is/was the director of the Joseph Smith program he was doing with the stake chorus, there was even an orchestra ready to go in 3 weeks. Canceled.
- My kids' school is not canceling school... which... it worries me.

Life GETS CRAZY in the weirdest way possible and impossible.
This week's lesson has been connected somehow in my mind with what is going on in the world.

It has made me thankful for the jobs I have that I can do from work (with no interruption from the virus).

I don't really know if everything that I'm writing right now has any meaning or connection with the class, but I promise it's connected in my brain.

Balancing! ha! This week we learned about balancing life... I'm pretty sure millions of people are trying to balancing a ton of things right at this moment.

For sure, it's an uncertain world, right now! More than ever before and... while all this is going on, I'm asking myself, am I ready? ready for more craziness?

Yesterday, I wrote in my journal. It was a happy and hard day.

The pursuit of happiness!!! Can we find happiness? YES!! My kids are here with me, no virus so far, my garden is getting bees, I have enough food to last us a couple of weeks. I have the internet to do work and homework... although... I have to say, "The more I do homework, the more I realize being outside (in the garden) is where I want to be."

Life IS great, we can't deny it, WE HAVE A LIVING PROPHET!, who better than a Doctor!.
I'm thankful for the Home centered church approach that the church has right now! Like President Nelson said, these are exciting times! :)

Let's look for that happiness and joy at this moment, and I know we can find it in Christ. Let's give him his victory acknowledging that He already partook of the cup.

There is a quote I like that says “Life may not be the party we hoped for... but while we're here we may as well dance.”
