I haven't been to the Temple since my car accident two years ago. I go through motivational periods where I want to do everything that I'm supposed to. However, I'm in a dark phase right now that I can't seem to shake. I only go to Church grudgingly and I've taken up some of my old bad habits again.
Reading that entry was inspiring though, thanks for sharing it Patrick.
What happened to my comment? Let's try again, as I have become one of "those" lost comment people. Anyway, I know little about the Temple (other than what I read and that my dad's cousin's wife couldn't get into her own daughter's wedding), but I do know of David Byrne and Talking Heads, and of LSD (other post) many, many moons ago. Also, is your name actually Patrick? I didn't think so- or I had a good tattoo story for you. But I digress. It was an inspirational post. I do get it, even as non-LDS. I had felt that way in my own church.
It's not Patrick. Patrick Henry was a very outspoken anti-British critic during the Colonial times. I would hope to be as brave as he, but I'm a coward...I'm functionally insane, so my moods fluctuate. The Temple is a wonderful place. Nothing weird happens there, it's just a mystique placed there, and because of its sacred nature, only worthy members (those trying to live a Christ-like life) are able to go in. Not even all LDS are able to go.
Yeah I know all about that Patrick Henry. :) I like that term, functionally insane. And thanks for the Temple info.
Thanks for sharing the temple link. In 98-99 I was where she was. I had been inactive for 10 years, before coming back for good in '99. I almost could hear myself in some of what she wrote. Thanks!
