Just when I thought I was going to avoid getting the 'marriage' talk this year...
Well, I made it through the Winter semester successfully without ever hearing a full-on talk specifically about "finding your eternal companion," but I guess I couldn't go for too long before getting it. We had the first devotional of the Spring semester today and President Clark spoke on that exact topic. It was really funny- when he said what he was going to speaking on, 3/4 of the Hart auditorium (and I'm sure in the Taylor and the Snow as well) gave a huge groan. He said "I see you're familiar with this topic." It was a wonderful devotional, though. In fact, it was probably one of my favorite devotionals that I've heard here. It was really sweet- President Clark even read a poem he wrote for Sister Clark that he'd never read to her before and when he told the audience/congregation that, we all went "awwwww". Haha. It was cute. After reading the poem, Sister Clark walked over to President Clark and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Again, the audience went "awwww" (I've never been in a devotional when the audience has "aww"ed so many times!) and President Clark's face went red. It was adorable. But yeah, I guess I couldn't hide from the topic forever. It's a topic that is commonly used for talks geared towards people my age since we are at the prime marriage age, at least among the LDS community.
