This is the second proverb I made a meme of. It came from a comment during class that a fellow class member shared. I liked it and thought I’d make a meme.

General Conference thoughts: Be With and Strengthen Them
by Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
How to be a decent human being 101. That’s what this is all about. If the heart is the symbol of love and we live in a time when “men’s hearts shall fail them” (Doctrine and Covenants 45:26) is it any wonder we need to be reminded how to use our heart? Or that we need to know how to put the checklist down and focus on people? Continue reading
The distraction plan
I knew the date was coming. For two years, I was aware of the day. It caused no small amount of worry, pondering, and contemplating. This was going to be a difficult day. But it was two years away so I could put it to the back of my mind. Continue reading
Waning Enthusiasm
I once was excited

Momma’s Proverb
A few Sundays ago, we discussed The Proverbs in Sunday School. I decided since the Bible’s Proverbs are the original memes (so to speak) I thought I’d make a couple of memes out of them.

General Conference thoughts: Ministering
by President Russell M. Nelson

Conversations with myself

If you do something similar to this then you’re more normal than you think.” Or something along that line. Or maybe it’s just to prove I am alone in this. Continue reading
Ode to Summer
So much for the great outdoors.
The sun is too hot
and dried my lips.
Now a cold sore I got. Continue reading
Procrastinate Not
I am a dreamer. Always have been. The other day as I thought of my to-do list and my bucket list I realized they will always remain on my list unless I actually do them. And if I continue to wait for an available moment, they will always remain dreams. Continue reading
General Conference thoughts: the testimonies of two new Apostles
Two new apostles were called to fill in the vacancies of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles during the Saturday afternoon session. Each one was permitted to share a brief testimony during Sunday afternoon’s session.
Elder Gong focused his testimony on the message of Easter Sunday and the hope of the Atonement of Christ.
Elder Soares pointed us toward listening to our prophet because “he knows the way.”
