Things that Matter

"As we turn to our Heavenly Father and seek His wisdom regarding the things that matter most, we learn over and over again the importance of four key relationships: with our God, with our families, with our fellowman, and with ourselves. As we evaluate our own lives with a willing mind, we will see where we have drifted from the more excellent way. The eyes of our understanding will be opened, and we will recognize what needs to be done to purify our heart and refocus our life." --President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Catching Up and Moving Forward

In January I started this "365" blog with the intent of each day adding a new something something! Well, it was a great idea then and it is a great idea now. However, something happened between then and now. Not sure what - maybe life. It does tend to happen! But I'm back with a renewed energy to do this thing. So from this day forward I will share those things that make me think and stretch.
But I'm also going to fill in those missed days until I'm caught up!
Oh and if I repeat myself....it is because somethings are just worth hearing twice.

Life

"The ideal life is one of joy. The face ought to be shining – shining even in darkness.

People say this is a sad world, yes, for those who have eyes only for shadows.

He who has songs in his heart hears songs wherever he goes.”

~~Dr. J.R. Miller

Life

"I urge you to examine your life. Determine where you are and what you need to do to be the kind of person you want to be. Create inspiring, noble, and righteous goals that fire your imagination and create excitement in your heart. And then keep your eye on them. Work consistently towards achieving them."

~~Joseph B. Wirthlin

Life

This life is not so much a time for getting and

accumulating as it is a time for giving and becoming.

Life

"Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim."

~~Nora Ephron

Happiness

Every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. Life is short, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile.

Life

"You can't always be perfect. But you can have a life that's about being something."

~~Kevin Costner

Life

"Life is good, if we live in such a way to make it so. A good life comes as a result of the way we do things, of the words we choose to say, and even of the kind of thoughts we choose to have. Wanting to is the determining factor which leads us to lay hold upon the word of God and be happy.

Perseverance in making correct decisions is what leads us to happiness."

~~Benjamín de Hoyos

Holy Present

"The today's of life constitute the holy present. We can't fix the past.

We may be able to repent of it, but we can't change past events.

We can fashion the future, and we do that by using what someone

has called the holy present, which indeed it is."

~~Neal A. Maxwell

Think

"You probably wouldn't worry about what people think of you if you could know how seldom they do."

~~Olin Miller

Life

"The greatest battle of life is fought within the silent chambers of your own soul.. . .It is a good thing to sit down and commune with yourself, to come to an understanding with yourself and decide in that silent moment what your duty is to your family, to your Church, to your country, and . . . to your fellowmen"

~~President David O. McKay
