I found our last discussion of the semester very enlightening. The part that I found most useful as we talked about aging was that Life is a journey and aging is a part of that journey. There are many challenges that can and do arise as we age in life but there are so many opportunities that we have to grow a better relationship with ourselves, our spouse, children, and our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. I loved as we watched the video of Jon Schmidt and Steven Sharp mixing love song and viva la Vida and the different meaning we can pull from it. such as when we first start out in our marriages we we have this love story going on, we have fallen in love with such an amazing person and we are building that love with each other as we go through our marriage, and then as the song changes to viva la Vida, which means to live life, and we live life through the good and bad, trying to make the best of it and have fun at the same time. than the song switches back to love story suggesting that either we are re-building that love as it has been all over the place throughout the years or we are just continuing to build and strengthen it as we now have new opportunities with our aging years.
