As things change, everything remains the same

Well, apparently the expected time for studying, taking and passing a test and getting a license to do business is two weeds for the Allstate office I had a job offer at, so now I am still looking for something else and the phlebotomy class is full and a new one isn't starting in until September, which doesn't really fit into the plan. I bought an Iron Gym and am going to start exercising so I feel better about myself and am more motivated and energized in other areas of life. We had a great weekend watching General Conference and going to Kobe with Erin and Ryan and Alicia for Erin's birthday. It was pretty good. I enjoy spending time with family. Not much more to report on, school's over, tests are ahead and soon Liz will be the main bread winner in the family while I stay home and play video games! :) Just kidding. She is looking forward to being able to stay home more. Me, too.

"Well, they tore my family apart!"  Did the LDS church really tear your family apart or was it the individual choices you were all making?  "Well, I just don't agree with the doctrine."  What don't you agree with?  That Jesus is the Son of God and Savior of the world? ...

A Question of Balance

Well, there are a lot of questions and situations in life that require a lot of prayer and thought. What job to take, is that the right place to live, whom should I ask to do this or that and other various and sundry choices and decisions to make. I am just glad that there are people here on this Earth and not on this Earth that know more than me and are far wiser. Parents, older friends and siblings, church and civic leaders and many more. But the most important one that I know now more than ever that is the most understanding and the most reliable is our Father in Heaven. It's extremely comforting to know that He is there and that I have the Gift of the Holy Ghost so that I can hear and feel him. And there is no greater comfort for mental, physical, emotional and spirtiual pain than relying on the blessing of the Atonement of Jesus Christ. By him and through him and of him we can all find the peace and comfort we all crave as imperfect human beings. To know that the mista...
