President Gordon B. Hinckley once said: "Life is to be enjoyed, not endured." This is a blog of my favorite quotes, short stories, and general things that I enjoy. I hope you find them enjoyable too! As I find more things I will add them. Disclaimer: I am not perfect. Where possible I will provide accurate references.

Spencer W. Kimball
"Yes the devil is decidedly a person. He is also clever and trained. With thousands of years of experience behind him he has become superbly efficient and increasingly determined... In fact even more experienced adults cannot afford to be sure of their resistence to Satan."--Spencer W. Kimball
Ben Behunin
"I have learned that His well is always full, but we must decide if we will drink, if we will fill our lamps and our vessels with the goodness He offers us. In recent years I have recognized that our world is filled with counterfeits that offer some semblance of truth, but in reality, lead many of us down dark and crooked paths. The light of God's love beckons us all to return. There is hope in the light of His love. There is safty. There is peace. The oil He offers us will burn bright, giving light to our path until the perfect day."--Ben Behunin
John Keats
"Don't be discouraged by failure. It can be a positive experience. Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success. inasmuch as every discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true, and every fresh experience points out some form of error which we shall afterwards carefully avoid." --John Keats

Ok so I haven't been blogging lately. There is a reason! I have been READING! As a result, I have a few new favorite quotes to add to my blog! Lucky you! I don't know if you've heard of the book "Remembering Issac" by Ben Behunin or not, but if you haven't, you're missing out! Actually, it's not just one book--it's a series of THREE BOOKS! I told you that you were missing out! I have learned so much. The next few posts will reflect the things I have learned. I will just be adding the quotes, not commentating. I believe that is what a journal is for. The things I have learned, and the things you will learn, will be different and personal. Enjoy!
"Too much planning eliminates the potential for magic to happen."--Ben Behunin
