Love

I was just scrolling through my news feed on the facebook and started thinking about family and friends. My heart is somewhat full and as I ponder the feelings I narrow it down to a love I have for my friends and family.  One part of the feed was of the oldest son of some of my friends who got married this weekend. It appeared to be a beautiful ceremony and I feel joy for my friends and for their son and his new bride. Awesome.
Another feed was of from a dear friend announcing the passing of her father after an 11 year battle with Alzheimer's. We lived a few houses away from her dad when things started to get pretty bad. Those were hard days and they have endured them well. This makes me grateful for the plan of salvation and the joys of eternal families. 
There were several other stories in my feed but one I truly loved was a picture of mom with Sam and Violet.
Grateful for family and friends that fill our hearts with joy.
