Beatrice Portinari

I have taken on myself to read Dante's Divine Comedy. some how i will have to complete the 14000 lines and 100 cantos. i can't help but resist the beautifully worded imagery. for example

And she began: "All things whate'er they be
Have order among themselves, and this is form,
That makes the universe resemble God.
Here do the higher creatures see the footprints
Of the Eternal Power

which all this reminds me of half a year ago, of these two parts of poetry.
Running Streams

And Also these images of what i fail to describe
At This High Moment, Ability Failed My Capacity To Describe

I study the scriptures and continue to reflect on my life. the past is gone, but is a constant shadow to the future. How i long for things that are in my heart. I sit in astonishment of hope and peace. I get to share this wonderful spirit with my savior. For anyone who has ever felt this can not deny the truth of the restored gospel. Hopefully this preparation will do good for my talk Sunday.
