Remember that conversation we had in the computer lab at SUU? It may only have been Benjamin and I. It was about keeping the fire and passion for our arts. I had read "The Gospel Vision of the Arts" by President David O. Mckay and felt so inspired. I felt like I was on fire. I talked to Benjamin about keeping the fire going.
I've thought about that lately. I feel, today, like I am remembering dreams I've long forgotten. I'm coming back to the warmth of a fire I used to feel often. I read that talk again and gained new insight that touched me deeply.
I want to continue to dream things that never were and say "Why not?"
Why not go to the moon?

That's RIGHT! I remember that conversation, I think, and I remember discussing that talk. I don't recall if I've discussed it in this blog, but my family has a Go to the Moon goal to be in a house by the end of the year (these drafty old army tents do get to one after a while). In my mind, it's not just a matter of aspiration, but also a matter of Faith. Ask, and ye shall receive, Knock and it shall be opened.
