Tonight we celebrated David Breckterfield’s 78th birthday with Simi and dear friends and family from Fiji, Tonga, and the U.S. These friends are 72, 75, 77, and 78. They’ve crossed countries, worked hard, raised families, and welcomed grandchildren.

Sione Sokia kept us laughing with his jokes and stories—he’s such a happy man! They reminisced about their days at Liahona and their early years in America: fighting, jail, partying, deer hunting, and fishing. Those memories stretched from before they got married into the early years of their marriages. Then came the years of building families and being sealed in the temple.

Their families have grown in their own ways: David’s son coaches at the U, Sione has twin granddaughters, and Setaita and Pita RIL have seven grandchildren. It was lovely to see Setaita and her new husband, straight from Vava’u via Canada, and to visit with Ame Breckterfield.

We also had a special surprise: our waiter was Fijian, of Asian descent, and had only lived in the U.S. for a few years. He was so happy to serve our table and shared that he was homesick. It felt like a little piece of home had found its way to our dinner.

And those Fijian friends went through some chile sauce! Fijians like their food spicy! 🌶️

Not everyone gets to celebrate a 78th birthday. Watching these friends together made me wonder: Will I be able to go to dinner with my friends at 75, sharing stories and laughing like they did tonight? I hope so.

Thank you, Miti and Judy Suwai, for bringing everyone together. Happy 78th birthday, David! 🎂❤️

Abuse is abuse. Control, threats, intimidation, isolation, and violence are not signs of love or a healthy relationship.

Domestic violence can happen to anyone, and you don’t have to wait for things to get worse before reaching out for support.

If you’re experiencing abuse—or you’re worried about someone you love—Utah’s 24/7 LINKLine can connect you with confidential support, safety planning, shelters, and local resources.

No judgment. No need to have all the answers. Just a place to start.

If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 911.

I was sharing one of my favorite songs to a friend this morning and I thought I would share it online. The lyrics are just beautiful. Some days I play it on repeat and cry, singing the lyrics. Let me know what you think of at.

Thank you my Native/ Tongan brother Abraham Thomas music and Real Native Soul for this song. Such a beatiful blend of male indigenous voices.
