This talk was wonderful! It brought many memories of my adolescence to mind, along with quite a few ponderous questions which I had never before contemplated.
I'm not sure if it's my current mood, or the Spirit or what, but this talk was wonderful.
It brought back memories of my own childhood, when I made decisions which would bring on ma...

Miss Universe

Okay, I was watching the latest Miss Universe the other day and it was kind of like watching a train wreck. You don't want to look, but you can't bring yourself to turn away. The interesting part about it was the question and answer portion which is supposed to be the most important part of the competition (yeah right!). They had ...

Gen. Conf. - Will Not Yield - Zwick

Ya know... I really liked this talk. There were points in it where I found his words coming through my mind's eye of the past.
While growing up, I was probably on the extreme of what Elder Zwick was trying to convey. Instead of being tempted to go along with the crowd, I thought the crowd was stupid, and I didn't need them. ...

My poem

It's a new day,
And so I must fight.
Fight for my right live!
As time gose on,
I know my suffering will be small.
But why must I stuggle at all?
Time will go on,
And soon I'll be,
Just another scar on your heart.
Am I so alone?
My sadness and pain,
I'll never show.
But will time go on for me?
Can there be light behind my sorrow...

All I've gotta say is - don't get on the wrong side of God. The wrath of God shown in chapter 9 really is quite astounding.
Then, in chapter 10, it's almost as if God's words were pleading to the people... Almost as if God were remorseful of the things He had to do... Claiming, "If ye only had kept my commandments, these th...

Seems like chapter 29 is all about "spurning", and to be honest, I really don't know what that means. The word is used 4 times in 3 verses, and is used no where else in scripture. It's definitely something we shouldn't do, and may be related to "hissing" or "making game". Very interesting.
