    1. Death
    2. Right now, while the world is so focused on the journey we call death, I want to share a quote I found when my cancer was unchecked and no treatment available. these thoughts are not only for those who are ill, but for every person who dies. I have thought of Di and what she learned in this life...she was on a course of self-discovery and was a warm compassionate. Her moral standards were different from ours. I couldn't help but think that perhaps in the spirit world she will be more available to the truths of the Gospel. I hope so. What a wonderful thing is death, really, when all is said and done. It is the great reliever. It is a majestic quiet passing on from this life to another life--a better life--I'm satisfied of that. We go to a place where we will not suffer as we have suffered here, but where we will continue to grow, accumulating knowledge and developing and being useful under the plan of the Almighty made possible through the atonement of the Son of God. --Gordon B. Hinkley, Pres., The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-Day Saints (LDS), 3 Jan 1996
