This stage

The world is a stage... well, accorning to Nickelback, it really depends on what stage you are standing on.

Every first Sunday that rolls around I think of what my father used to say about how people liked to use a public forum to say the things that ought to be said in private,  like people declaring their love for family, country, God, etc. Mostly, their spouses it was like they were trying to make up for all they failed to say by publically professing something so that witnesses would solidify it as true. Why do I mention this?  I intend to explain...

If mortality is a stage to speak, it is a "public forum" and just because a thing isn't professed to this world does not mean it is not true. I knew that my parents loved eachother, and they believed whole heartedly in the gospel as taught by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. But, they did not need to have it publically declared.

There are things I have never spoken of, and probably never will and have never felt the need, but I believe them fully, I just do not want to, um. Sort of involve mortality with it at all, and fortunately, if you do not say things, people cannot read your mind.
