We should not allow our personal values to erode, even if others think we are peculiar. "--President James E. Faust

This is me....

...making a new commitment to clean the dust off this blog and post regularly again.  What??  You say you've heard that before?  Well, it's a new goal.  I'll try.  But my mom says that it's not fair that I have let Facebook take over my updating, and my blog has been neglected.  Because even though Tim made her a FB page, she is not sold on it, and even has ten friend requests in que that haven't been accepted.  Mine is one of them.  When I return from this FABULOUS road trip, we'll have LOTS to share.


I promise.

6 friends are talking:

I'm recommitting to the blog again too - at least for the next 26 days. I decided to run a blog marathon to help get some updates done so I can make a Blurb book. Good luck to you!!!

"For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.”

-Audrey Hepburn
Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want.


"I am one of [Jesus Christ's] witnesses, and in a coming day I shall feel the nail marks in his hands and in his feet and shall wet his feet with my tears. But I shall not know any better then than I know now that he is God's Almighty Son, that he is our Savior and Redeemer, and that salvation comes in and through his atoning blood and in no other way."--Bruce R. McConkie, "The Purifying Power of Gethsemane"

"...we must be careful, as we seek to become more and more godlike, that we do not become discouraged and lose hope. Becoming Christlike is a lifetime pursuit and very often involves growth and change that is slow, almost imperceptible. The scriptures record remarkable accounts of men whose lives changed dramatically, in an instant... But we must be cautious as we discuss these remarkable examples. Though they are real and powerful, they are the exception more than the rule. For every Paul, for every Enos, and for every King Lamoni, there are hundreds and thousands of people who find the process of repentance much more subtle, much more imperceptible. Day by day they move closer to the Lord, little realizing they are building a godlike life. They live quiet lives of goodness, service, and commitment. They are like the Lamanites, who the Lord said "were baptized with fire and with the Holy Ghost, and theyknew it not." (3 Ne. 9:20; italics added.)"--Ezra Taft Benson, "A Mighty Changeof Heart"
