“Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste
a lot of time running around shouting that he’s been robbed. The fact is that most putts don’t drop, most
beef is tough, most children grow up to just be people, most successful
marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, most jobs are more often
dull than otherwise. Life is like an old
time rail journey….delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts,
interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling burst of
speed. The trick is to thank the Lord
for letting you have the ride.” (Gordon
B. Hindkley, 15th President of the Church of Latter-day Saints)
