I took Rick to the dentist to get a bunch of cavities filled. I went on St. Patrick's Day so I was wearing green. A lady came in to the dentist office and said she felt she was supposed to talk to me. I said, "Ok. Since I don't know you and will probably never see you again, go ahead and say whatever you'd like to." She told me she was 57 years old and was getting a divorce after 35 years of marriage and she has eight kids. She said she has been listening to President Nelson's talks and that she had come to know the Lord years ago on her mission and she knew he loved her. She asked if I had anything going on in my life and I said that I was sure that everyone has their "stuff" they are dealing with. Then she told me about a talk by Robert D. Hales in 1981 that basically said Job went through hardships and that everyone at sometime in their life would go through one, two or all three of 1) Financial setbacks 2) Illness or 3) Depression. I looked up the talk and it was about the example of President Spencer W. Kimball when he was going through the trial of illness. It said he kept going doing the best he could because of his conviction that he was doing an important work in preparing for the Lord's second coming. Then the lady at the dentist office asked me to smell some citrus essential oil and she put some on my wrists and said, "For me, just smelling this scent makes me so happy!" Then she went in to see the dentist. Interesting experience!
