As Nephi of old shared about his parents, I too can say, "I, Elena, having been born of goodly parents..."
Today, I am grateful for my parents. They are truly amazing individuals and I love them very much. They don't share the same beliefs I have, but they do believe in the same Heavenly Father and Savior I believe in.
They have made plenty of sacrifices to help me be who I am; they have made plenty of sacrifices to support me in my decisions, even when they did not agree.
I live 5,000 miles away from them and, although I talk to them every weekend, I wish I had the gift of extremely fast travel so I could go visit them every night for a few minutes, or even hours, yet be back home for a good night's rest and work the next day!
