Three Things... the return...
1. I had a thought thrust upon me when I was in Idaho of all places. And to think that moments earlier I had stood at the Utah/Idaho border and laughed and laughed. Still makes me chuckle just thinking aboot it. Ppssst, Idaho, he he. Anyhow, the thought was this: bitter people don't necessarily become bitter because of a bunch of bad experiences. Often, people let bitterness creep in because of living too many average days in a row. When we become too accustomed to the normal, the normal becomes dull, and we grow callous to the mediocrity that is often our routine. I'm not saying that we all need to abandon doing laundry, making our bed everyday, or cutting our toenails (well, less than I already do...), but why can't I be happy when I'm dusting my desk lamp? And even if I'm not, why not strive to be so? Not to say that we have to be elated at brushing our teeth, but I think that if we lose focus on striving to enjoy the moment then brushing our teeth becomes just another part of a routine. Which becomes another chore. Which becomes more of an annoyance, and then we're just doing one more thing to make it through another bad day. Pres. Packer once said,"...unless we strive with all of our might to live by the Spirit, we cannot generate enough light to push back the darkness." (paraphrased). I had the thought that unless we strive with all of our might to enjoy life at the moment of living, we cannot generate enough happiness to push back the bitterness. Don't lose focus, and don't have too many average days in a row. 'k, I'll get down now.
2. I just recently had a discussion over how cool and revolutionary the Nintendo Game Pad was (you know, the one you could play the Nintendo Olympics with). I'm definitely convinced that it needs to go on my top 5 list of most important technological advances to grace the children of the 90's. Which reminds me, I need to make the list - suggestions?
3. Hmmm, I should come up with something funny. Oh, wait, someone already did -
