Life goes on

Well, President Hinckley passed away last night. Please visit the following (and browse around to read about the wonderful things he did for the church):

I'd appreciate it. If you don't relate to this right now, that's fine. I'll try to explain in the best way possible.

Pretend for a moment that your parents came home right now and told you that your grandfather had died. You are in shock, but you later realize that you had never met him, yet he had influenced so many things of yours (interest in music, animals, whatever). You are sad, yet you know he's in a better place [with his wife, no less].

It's kinda like that. It's just knowing that he cared so much for the youth, and did so much to help us be better people. Y'know?

Anyway. In remembrance of President Hinckley, 23 June 1910 to 27 January 2008, the 15th president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints...
