I loved Sister Dalton's talk on Virtue. Is it true that most people don't try the virtue of ideas before they espouse them? The word virtue comes from the Latin word for 'strength'. I like thinking of virtue as strength. Like, a person who chooses the right, ethical, good-feeling way shows strength by not consulting the majority first. We seek after virtuous, lovely, and praiseworthy things. Does virtue exist outside, apart, independent in the universe? Can it be relative and still be virtue? If virtuous things tend to seek out one another, is it a quality, a quality that God possesses? He possesses all virtues.
My husband, who is virtuous, wishes every weekend could be conference weekend. Honestly. Today was so pleasant with the children. Everyone worked on a Lehi Roller Mills puzzle by Eric Dowdle, whose artwork I want in my house, while we listened to the conference talks. We've had good discussions at mealtimes and fun being together.
