what matters most

"... may we fill our days - as much as we can - 

with those things which matters most."

Thomas S. Monson

In light of my desire to be a better mom and wife and to find a healthy rhythm in my life, this video did my heart good.  After watching this I feel as though I am actually doing the right thing.  My husband and my son are the things that matter most.  All those lunchtimes spent flying kites or meeting for lunch with Zack or those evenings when we meet up with him so we can accompany him on a little errand, or standing in the same spot for 10 minutes just so I can tell Odin that daddy is coming and then Odin can go to the window and see Zack arriving home, or taking Odin to the park or letting him get really wet and dirty in the back yard, etc., these are all bits and pieces that fill my days with them - the "things" which matter most.

What would our lives be like, how much happier would we be if we really listened to this wise advice - 'fill your days with those things which matter most.'

Here's to living life better and filling our days - as much as we can - with the things that matter most!
