Taxes and The Meaning of life .

One of the reasons, I have been so long, since the last blog, was because of taxes. This year has been a drain, just finding all the paper work. No need to inform the IRS, I didn't cheat. But because it was so complicated, I would guess it took about ten hours to complete. In the end, the paper work and the 75 dollars took me from refinancing the house, to pay the taxes, owed, too having a few bucks to set aside for a rainy day.

The Meaning of Life, is a question that has perplexed men and women, form what seems to be the begging of time. For me it is real simple. We live so that we can become closer too our Heavenly Father.

Hours and hours of taxes, or any other trial you can think of, are as the lord told Joseph Smith, are but a moment.

In my most recent trials, I have found the greatest joys, I have ever known. Not because I enjoy problems, but because I am finally developing faith. And I feel the love of my Father in Heaven, more and more, as my faith grows.

The key is, and will always be, prayer that is from the heart and faith that what ever happens, it will be for my good. And it is just the same for you, who ever you are. Our Father in Heaven loves all his children, like they were the only child. Something that I can not comprehend, but I know it to be true.

Life is very good. Even on the days when you have to do your taxes.

No pictures, because I can't find my camera. But I am working on trying to get pictures from some were else.

Love to all, Boyd

I had to pay a ton this year for the first time. I sent a check and filed for an extension. Now I have the whole summer to procrastinate when I will get around to the 10 hour exercise.
Glad to see you back.
