I don’t know what this means. It’s one of those I came up with after a walk and it sounded a bit more profound in my head. Perhaps you can determine a deeper meaning? Continue reading

General Conference thoughts: With One Accord
by Reyna I. Aburto
As I mentioned before, there were two vocabulary words stressed this conference. They actually go hand in hand. One is ministering and the other word is unity or a variation of it. In other words, unity is being stressed at a time when division and rifts are occurring in nations, communities, and even homes. We are falling apart and our division will destroy nations, communities, and even homes. Continue reading
Dad’s Friends
My siblings and I have all commented on our dad’s ability to meet friends. No matter where we go, people just gravitate to dad and become a friend. For him, a stranger is just a friend he hasn’t met yet. Continue reading
Cotton
Cotton from the trees
does not fall directly down.
Instead, it lets the wind
dance it around. Continue reading
Ironing
To be honest, I think the act of ironing is dying. I don’t know a lot of people that still do it. But wrinkly clothes bugs me. I painstakingly take the time once a week to tediously iron work shirts and pants before I stuff them in my crowded closet. Continue reading
General Conference thoughts: Take the Holy Spirit as Your Guide and His Spirit to Be with You
by Elder Larry Y. Wilson
and President Henry B. Eyring
I believe learning the language of the Spirit is the most crucial skill a person can acquire in this day and age. It is also something I lack the ability to do. That is why I appreciate step by step instructions on how to accomplish this task more so than pretty metaphors and imagery that sometimes loses practical implementation. Continue reading
Twitter Followers
I’m not suave about social media. For me, it’s definitely a love-hate relationship with it all. I declare with loud voice how much I’d like to do away with it all but then I seem to be the first to like a status or post on Facebook. Ugh. Somehow I also ended up on Twitter so now I have two accounts that I feel the need to share on. This is way too much sharing for one boring person. Continue reading
One More Hour
Could I have one more hour of every day? Continue reading
Assess and Rank
A self-evaluation after a task may help us improve. Be honest but not harsh. The goal is to improve for next time not defeat in the meantime. Continue reading
General Conference thoughts: General Priesthood Session
Due to space and time, the entire Saturday evening session is combined in one post.
I don’t watch the Saturday evening of conference because after 4 hours from the morning and afternoon, my focus is shot (I’m not sure what I’ll do in October when I should watch that evening session) but I do read every talk in the Ensign. But this session I didn’t need to watch it per se because I heard all about it. At least, the changes announced during it. Continue reading
