(For the not LDS readers of my blog, every six months we have what is called General Conference, and it was this weekend. It is a broadcast originating in Salt Lake, and we have the opportunity to hear talks about doctrine and receive counsel from our world-wide leaders.)
I'm currently working on writing a 7-page paper that is due in 5.5 hours (I've got almost 5 pages, which is 5 pages more than I had when I woke up this morning...yeah), so I don't have time at the moment to write anything really meaningful about the talks I enjoyed and the things I learned from Conference. But, I did want to share something that I read on another blog (just now while taking a quick break from writing) that sums up my feelings quite well. This comes from Emily at Light Refreshments Served:
"The conference as a whole seemed largely geared to helping us deal with change and loss and adversity, though never in a context of sadness but always of hope."
I think she got it exactly right.

I think you hit the nail on the head. I'm always amazed that the messages leave me inspired to be better and work harder and filled with hope. How does the rest of the world make do without conference?
itll add another page or page and a half if you make all the periods size 14! lol good luck
