Be a Quality Person Now

LDS.org - Ensign Article - Be a Quality Person



I just read this article in the April 2010 Ensign. It made my day. I especially liked these parts.


-personal challenge is not to wait successfully but to live richly, fully, and joyfully. The goal is not to wait for the right person but to be the right person.


-The real fun of life is in overcoming obstacles while still happily hoping everything will work out.


-I complained ... that I was exhausted, having no fun, living like an automaton. Unsympathetically, she countered, "What do you think this? A dress rehearsal? This is your life, Carol. Fix it.'


-Fill your life with service, education, personality development, love for all, and other such meaningful traits.


-Come to know your Father in Heaven. Come to love Him. Always remember that He loves you and will give you guidance and support if you will but give Him the chance.


On a random note, I came across this picture on the Awkward Family Photos website. I love it on so many levels!

Freaky. I read one Ensign article over lunch today and it was that exact one. Full of good advice--I like the "fix it" part especially.
