Love which transcends time

Then I moved from the ward and lost touch with them. Some time later they called me, and I was overjoyed to hear them ask my wife and me to go with them to the temple.

How beautiful it was when their children joined hands with them across the altar! Can we, I thought, have the same joy in performing temple ordinances for our deceased ancestors? And there must be equal joy on the other side when we do. Because of charity for generations yet to be born, we keep our personal journals, in which we record our daily successes and struggles. Here we tell our descendants of our love for the gospel.

Oh, I thought, if we could just teach our children to write in their journals when they are young, they would continue the habit when they are older. With this in mind, it is easy to put love and understanding into all of our Church service, whether it be genealogy, home or visiting teaching, or missionary work.

Some people are better at one activity than another. To one is given the gift to read ancient records, to another the talent to type entries into the computer. To one is given the ability to convince the unbeliever, to another is given to believe. Some have the patience to work with teenagers, others have a love for children in the nursery. Whether we use our talents to help the living or the dead, it is the same work.

We begin where we are, and as we fulfill each task, our talents expand and our charity increases. As I contemplated all of this, a calm settled over my mind and heart. As my talents and time increase, so would my ability to serve. We just hadn't studied Metaphysics yet when we met. Sometimes the connections are impossible to break, if you are meant to be with this person, it will happen.

After a few moments with the woman who would eventually become my wife, I knew we'd be together our entire lives! It just clicked, some people are lucky I guess. I can't wait to get to your story! I never thought I would never see my first love again, but it really was in a vision.

I had a similar one this summer. I have a brother who is a drug addict and bi-polar to boot, and got incorrect info that he had died. He lives on the other side of the country, and I was frantically upset. I walked into a room, and our Mother was standing there, telling me she "was with me.

Love seems to have no boundaries of time. I just posted a story about how I met my wife, and it outlines certain timeless qualities. Thanks for posting this, love is what sustains us, because it gives us transcendence over the suffering in this world.

All the best! Always great throughout like when you know you made the correct decision. In most cases as you or old as we may be do you know we actually always know. Life never make anyone fail before they succeed, Not life other entities mabye but not life. It's a difficult one to take but that's one of the proofs. The truthful answer to my statement. Here is a good true one for you, let truth prevail-every time am about to say your name, I am tempted to write.

In the end I couldn't bring myself to marry someone who they disliked so much. It was the right decision, I have a chronic back problem and as the years went on, he would not have been mature enough to handle the pressures that came with it.

But I married the "other" guy, and we have a wonderful son who is going to be a teacher. Bless you too. I don't know if you celebrate Thanksgiving, our son is a vegetarian and we have little family left, so are having a vegetarian meal for our Thanksgiving dinner.

Be well, and thank you for your comments. You had to be very careful who you spoke to much less who you bought home and "IF" you had a phone in the house, be careful who calls. You never fail to surprise me. You show up on hubs where I wouldn't expect you! Thanks for reading, I have all kinds of supernatural interests! Very well written.

I enjoyed it much, it was interesting. Again, I'm finding out new things with astrology and, the supernatural as a whole that I wasn't aware of were happening before Thank you so much for reading and commenting, acaetnna! The story has been on my mind for years, and it felt good to look at it from a different perspective, being older and I hope, somewhat wiser. I know what a romantic you are and knew you would find this one! I think once we love it never dies, and I say it in the exact words, "Circumstances get in the way.

Hi, I'm not on FB, but feel free to connect me through here, and they'll put you thru, and we'll have each other's addresses. I noticed yesterday there's a movie out with this name, so it's way back on Google. I have to change the name. Talk soon. Many great suggestions Jean - thanks! Neale Donald Walsch says: "Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.

Are you on fb? Would love to connect, we seem to have much in common - url on my profile if mutual. Thanks for your kind comments. As you guessed, much of the story really happened. I felt that pull the minute I met him, but we broke up so many times as years went on, I didn't think I'd never see him again the last time he left.

The experience at the end is real too, a little more to it, but I know what happened. I felt similar when I met my husband, the "other guy" in the story.

He was always so easy to be with, we were so comfortable, never had to put on that "act" like people do when they first date. But now we are having a hard patch. And from my metaphysics classes, I know we have "conferences" with guides in between incarnations, to decide what situations we need to grow. So I figure this patch with my husband was planned and I have to ride it out now, or I'll have to come back and do it again!

Threads by Nell Gavin is great too. Best book I've read in ages. Take care and thanks for understanding! I do believe in soul partners - people we instantly click with - that we've shared past lives with. It explains so much of what happens in this life yet it is, more often than not, difficult to even discuss with the other person. Without doubt in the way, anything unresolved can leap into awareness instantly - a picture, a feeling, a lifetime From my experience, once seen, resolving any unfinished business can be as quick as a decision to do so too, yet there's an enormous pull to want the other to know it as deeply as we do.

Perhaps acceptance plays a huge part? As you said, "now she would say Maybe their stubborn unwillingness to change helps us more than we realize? Have you ever read "Sacred Contracts" by Carolyn Myss? She says before we return, we contract with others to help us see certain lessons in order to fulfill the purpose we came to achieve. It all comes down to filmmaker intent.

He is demonstrating and discussing the latest theories about the nature of black holes, gravity and the movement of time and space with the invaluable assistance of physicist Kip Thorne. To dedicate so much time and effort to establish the rules our universe operates by, only to allow Cooper to talk to his daughter Murph who has grown up without him through time and space because he really loves her and because you need an emotional high point for your third act, feels a little like having your cake and eating it.

For all his strengths as a filmmaker, Christopher Nolan can be a hard man to read, his true thoughts on any human experience left opaque and ambiguous. Nolan may think love can overcome the hard and fast laws of the universe, he may not. He may be leaving it up to us to decide. Time travel films do not always fling their characters into the distant past or the far future. By taking an essential human experience, falling in love, and pushing things only a little further into the outlandish, Powell and Pressburger, David Lowery and Christopher Nolan are commenting on how love makes us feel.

As far as humanity is concerned, time moves in a straight line, but love, and love on film, changes that experience. Sam Sewell-Peterson. Love is about him thinking of her needs when he decides where to live, what job to take and how to spend his time.

Love is about her cooking the food he likes … and about his enjoying whatever food she cooks … about his letting her choose the television programs and movies they watch … about her following him to the ends of the earth when he decides to work in another country … about his learning to take out the garbage and do the dishes and bring her hot tea just before bedtime … and about each of them looking after the other when sickness and disabilities come calling.

And about the two of them enjoying their intimate moments together because each is trying to please the other. The greatest lovers, therefore, are those who have learned this lesson.
