No longer forward or behind I look with hope or fear; But, grateful, take the good I find, The best of now and here. John Greenleaf Whittier. To celebrate the New Year, I am going to buy a portrait-quality picture of Annie, place it in a gilt frame, and hang it above my bed. I will do that first thing tomorrow. Like the Little Orphan Optimist, I. It is the one thing most likely to get me through today. Fortunately, six days of every week come with a shiny-new tomorrow of their own! Anyone can do it!

The most fun I ever had online was when I participated on Six LDS Writers and a Frog, a blog founded by Sariah Wilson and written by Jeffrey (J. Scott) Savage, Robison Wells, Stephanie Black, Julie Bellon and me. (These folks remain my favorite authors - and people - of all time.) This week Julie put together a reunion. Today was my turn. I sat down to write this y...

No longer forward or behind I look with hope or fear; But, grateful, take the good I find, The best of now and here. John Greenleaf Whittier. To quote author Abel Keogh:. At some point we’re all going to face a devastating affliction and cope with loss. How we choose to react to the bad things that happen in our lives defines who we are. We can either learn from our experiences and become a better person, or dwell in bitterness and sorrow. I choose to make the best out of a bad situation. At some point i...

I inherited a pit bull from the kid who failed to read the fine print, i.e.: No dogs allowed in barracks. Clearly, I am a dog person. That there are cat people in the world – two of whom currently share an abode with me – is a constant source of wonderment. What do they see. In the crafty little critters? The dog begs. T...

Mormon had a mother. Despite the stripling warriors getting all the credit for a superior education, Helaman too had a mother. There are men everywhere! Why don’t they go? God bless us, every one. Not even Moroni’s mother would ask for anything more. Posted by Kerry Blair. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

I was asked recently to speak on personal and family preparedness. “Good deal! 8221; I thought.
