Just reading in first Nephi how they traveled in the wilderness for ....what was it....eight years!!!! Which makes me also recall the Jaredites and how they were camped at the waters edge for years as well. At first reading, I feel immediately impatient for those poor people. It was hard enough leaving home and living in hot, arid desert. But to do so for years with brothers who wanted to kill you every other day and aged parents and wives having babies and learning to find new strength to bare burdens.....I mean it must have been such a test of endurance!! But the boat did get built and the promised land discovered and there was eventually much rejoicing. It is all perspective and attitude and trust and faith and ..... if you love Byron Katie like I do, learning to love what is.
