"Okay"

Before Conference, I was going to blog about how, no matter what happens, it's going to be "okay." It's not going to be great, but it's not going to be terrible. It'll be "okay." And that's okay! We can learn to be content with moderately acceptable outcomes, even in ourselves. Sure, we're not perfect yet, but we're not too bad, either. We're "okay," and that's okay. That's what I would have blogged about.

But then Dieter F. Uchtdorf said something about how the future isn't just going to be "alright." It'll be unimaginable. It's going to be so much better than "okay," (after a period of time that'll be much worse than "okay").

But still, until then, we're going to have to deal with a lot of mediocrity, including in ourselves. We will ultimately become perfect, but until we do, we're going to have to learn to live with imperfections. Life won't stay "okay" forever, but until life changes again, it'll be okay.
