City photos

These are photos are of some of the beautiful buildings in Bucharest. A great deal of 

of the city has buildings built during the communist occupation.  They are old and in poor repair.

I had the opportunity to visit with a women who was probably in her forties. She told me how it was to live under communist rule.  The people could not talk about God or even talk about Santa Claus.  I knew that it happened, but, it was even more touching to speak with a person who lived through it.  She said that her parents taught her about God.  She is coming to the LDS church with her fourteen year old daughter.  She doesn't know if she will join, but, she will attend with her daughter if that is what her daughter chooses to do.  She wants her daughter to have choices.  

I am grateful for the opportunity to have the freedom to follow my heart.
