We all have things we need to do to make ourselves better people. Sometimes along the road we may work hard to improve ourselves. At other times, the best we can do is just survive. Endure. I've been in both situations and I'm guessing, so have you.

I get to work with the awesome youth in our church. In doing this, I also have the opportunity to work on a series of goals, just as I did in my youth. This program is called Personal Progress. It made quite an impact on me in my youth, and I have found in the few months since I started it again, there is much I am learning and that brings me strength.

So this blog is a record of my journey on that path. Feel free to comment, I'd love to know about your journey as well.

If you'd like to know more about the Personal Progress program or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, links are to the right. Enjoy!

For the Strength of Youth Standard 3: Education

Read about it here.

I hope our children remember the sacrifices of Dave's higher education and that they will see the blessings of those sacrifices now and when he is finished. Certainly one of the blessings of graduate school with a family of our size and ages is the example of the importance of education the children will come away with.

I take great joy in meeting and working with new people. It only serves to strengthen my testimony that we are all children of a Heavenly Father who loves us.

I love the scripture reference for this standard: Doctrine and Covenants 88:77-80. I love that the Lord tells us to learn and grow in a vast majority of things.
