Finding Joy in the Journey

One of my favorite talks from the October 2008 General Conference was given by President Thomas S. Monson during the Sunday Morning Session. One quote from that talk says:
"This is our one and only chance at mortal life - here and now. The longer we live, the greater is our realization that it is brief. Opportunities come, and then they are gone. I believe that among the greatest lessons we are to learn in this short sojourn upon the earth are lessons that help us distinguish between what is important and what is not. I plead with you not to let those most important things pass you by as you plan for that illusive and nonexistent future when you will have time to do all that you want to do. Instead, find joy in the journey - now." I hope you take time to read the entire talk as well as all the talks and find your favorite.
