problems are only opportunities in work clothes

“Life is full of problems. Opposition is not only unavoidable, it’s essential. Without opposition, without problems big and small to test our resolve and stimulate our thinking, we would accomplish very little. Muscles do not grow without resistance and neither do people”

This is the story of my life the past few months. Opposition at every turn. I can tell you that I had one of the most spiritual moments in my life recently whilest trying to overcome said opposition.

YW's Broadcast was amazing and I can't wait for Conference.

My daughter came home from "life skills" class in 8th grade, they were doing a unit on 'stress', and she all of a sudden believed that she had a 'stressed' life because of things like, homework, chores, and a few challenges with friends. I hope she caught on to what I was trying to teach her = stress can be good. It doesn't always sink in when coming from Mom.
