Understanding what we like, and why.
Illustration, if you can call it that, by the author. You press the same button when you are horny and when you are sad, is the thing. Such is Instagram. Such is the deep kernel of truth at the heart of every so-called "like". You press the heart, and every gamut of human emotion — the one that wants to fuck; the one that sympathises deeply; the one that is your mum, on the iPad with the font size all turned up, methodically going through every single post of yours from the last five years — is expressed by the same little motion: tap. Such a blunt tool for such a sheer and infinite range of human feeling. Every heart-tap, every hovered thumb, contains multitudes. And so it is up to us — anthropological documenters as we are, you and I — to try to figure what it all means. Does the flame emoji autoreply to an Instagram story mean anything?

I am so grateful to have had the ability to instill in them that family comes first. It started making me feel very nervous and apprehensive at the thought of having a family, and having all of his time be consumed by his work. This came about after many hours and many days of prayer, scripture study, going to the temple, receiving a priesthood blessing, and speaking with people I greatly trust my mom, especially. To others making this consideration, I would certainly suggest that you converse with your Father in Heaven about this important choice.
