Today

Some days things pile up until I feel 100 years old. And then I have to remind myself that I'm only barely creeping up on 20. I know that everyone older than me reading this is laughing at me, but you know you've been there. Days like this I start out by pouting and feeling sorry for myself, then I progress to anger that things don't work out the way I want, and then regret for not loving each day of my life the way I should. Today I have been thinking about our Prophet-Thomas S. Monson and the wisdom and faith that he constantly shows.


"On occasion we need to make a second effort - and a third effort, and a fourth effort, and as many degrees of effort as may be required to accomplish what we strive to achieve"

"The principles of living greatly include the capacity to face trouble with courage, disappointment with cheerfulness, and trial with humility"

"Don't save something for a special occasion. Every day of your life is a special occasion"

-President Thomas S. Monson
