I want to tell you about an experience I had a couple years ago.
I was sitting in the computer lab when a dear friend and co-worker approached me; she needed some software assistance and I was happy to help. We walked over to her computer and started chatting away.
She then looked at me in the eyes and asked "Why are you always happy?"
It took me aback at first, I guess I've never been asked that so in my mind I was trying to come up with a clever answer. I'm a happy girl. I have a wonderful life, I have an amazing family, I live in a beautiful place, I have the best of friends, I can eat food (I mean that's a biggie), I attend a fantastic University, I live five minutes away from the Temple, I have the gospel in my life.
I have the gospel in my life.
That's it.
I sure hope that the gospel has brought you the happiness that it has brought me! A kind of happiness that doesn't go away. A kind of happiness that will make others fall in love with you and want to be with you. Never let a day go by without being happy. Even in your times of sorrow you will be able to find happiness in the gospel. Oh, what a lovely thought. Now go and share some of your happiness!
