Happy end of March......Arts and Culture

My daughter Emily Taylor, certified mediator, developmental psychologist, teacher and and assistant director of conflict resolution at Utah Valley University was a presenter at a wonderful recent Mormon Women for Ethical Government (MWEG) spring conference.
I recommend Nikah (persecuted Uyghur minority in China) and A Simple Life (family and age theme), and especially touching was a survey of ordinary people in Bhutan about their happiness level.
I often attend the International Cinema at BYU with my friend Kerstin Grimmer
March 27 was the last day of our ESL term. With almost perfect attendance are my wonderful students Angelica from Chile and Rogerson from Haiti. We have a week of spring break now.
My daughter Julie Carlston came down from SLC and we visited Brian Kershisnik's fabulous exhibit at BYU Art museum. I've included some of these very thought-provoking works in a previous blog.
We all have burdens to carry
Ruth, Gardening in the Rain, and one depicting the curiosity of children are favorites of mine
The BYU Concert choir gave a lovely concert of sacred music from many faith traditions, followed by the fabulous BYU Men's Chorus (folk and sacred music). I can never get enough!
It's always wonderful to make new friends. Thanks to Kerstin for introducing me to Frances, Phiroze (retired Cornell professors from Taiwan and India), and Barbel. She also introduced me to a delightful book for all ages!Ruth, Gardening in the Rain, and one depicting the curiosity of children are favorites of mine

Each of us makes a difference as we live good lives and let our light shine and courageously let our voices be heard.
We look forward to our semi-annual church wide broadcast from SLC this weekend Sat and Sunday, 10-12 and 2-4 MDT to be inspired by our church leaders. Try tuning in!

It is amazing to watch my grandchildren grow up. 4 Easters ago they were little children, now they are young people! Enjoy the anticipation of a lovely Easter ! (photo from 2021)
