Fall short

I can’t recall quite where we met. I see him from time to time, here and there. I always like being in his company. He has an equable disposition and nothing much riles him. He has strong opinions yet expresses them evenhandedly. He’s OK with it when I don’t agree, though mostly I do. He’s always ready to help others and often does. Then, he takes time to be alone, to rest and pray. I try to be like him but I fall short. I read the gospel daily. Only on my very best days do I live the gospel.
