Mushu's "Glorious" Response

There are a lot of things that can make you feel glorious. I felt glorious when I finally rode my bike for the first time. Another time was when I won a big game that I had been practicing for, for a long time. Even when it was my birthday and I had a surprise party. There are probably a lot of events in your life that can make you feel glorious. That can make you feel like you are on the top of the world, and that nothing can stop you, that you are invincible. I have felt glorious many times, but none of them really even compared to a present I got one year.

On my eighth birthday, I got a present that made me feel so glorious inside, and it still does to this day. I remember it very clearly. In my church you get baptized at the age of eight when you are responsible enough for your actions. The day had finally arrived for me, and I was so excited. I remember making the choice to get baptized and to become a real member of my church. I asked my father to baptize me, because in my church you can have any worthy priesthood holder baptize you. I got in my white suit and descended into the font. I remember my father saying the prayer and then I was dunked in the water. When I emerged I felt so glorious and happy inside. I felt clean and pure, and I can still remember how I had felt to this very day. I felt glorious that I had done what my church believes the Savior had wanted us to do. I remember then being given the gift of the Holy Ghost, and knowing that from then on I had someone always watching over me and helping me to choose the right. Feeling glorious felt so good inside, it felt like my chest of burning and I felt so warm, like there was a blanket or comforter around me. I love having that feeling.

Dear Mushu,
I liked your story. I mostly liked the part about the surprise party. I also liked the part about the great gift. It must have been cool. I was happy when I read you won that big game. I hope you didn't fall off your bike. I hope you had a great time at church.
