A Study of Shoulders

You underestimate your shoulders. 
They are not a series of 
muscles, ligaments, tendons, 
where the humerus and scapula meet. 
They are emptying fields, 
living sunlight, blazing 
altars for hands, lips, 
a curving distance of sighs and weights, 
a thousand brush strokes 
of velvet and weather, 
a world where you 
carry your heart. 

--Terresa Wellborn 

Witness God's love

"I believe that the best way to be a witness of the beauty of God’s laws is to also witness of His deep, abiding, eternal love."

-Emily Milner

Did you know...

...that I absolutely love Mormon Messages? They are always uplifting, inspiring, and beautifully done.


This is one of my favorites. Enjoy!

Deep Beauty

"Deep beauty springs from virtue. It is the beauty of being chaste and morally clean. It is the kind of beauty that you see in the eyes of virtuoous women like your mother and grandmother. It is a beauty that is earned through faith, repentance, and honoring covenants." 
-Elaine S. Dalton
