Give Me The Simple Life

The Secret to Having it All is Knowing You Already Do

While in college, I took a creative writing class, which I really disliked. The "professor" was a grad student suffering from a severe Napolean Complex. Somedays, it would take all that I had to just go to class.

During one of our guest lectures, a poet told us how her ideas seemed to invade her mind. She said that for days, she would would have ideas rolling around in her brain. They would finally culminate int o a cohesive poem after about a week. She compared to getting ill. He husband would tease her that she was "coming down with poem."

Now, ironically 15 years later, it is one of the only classes that I remember. The words of that poet keep ringing in my mind and I "get" what she was talking about. So, thank you for reading, understanding and bearing with me during my process of "coming down with blog."

My Motto

Mend a quarrel.
Seek out a forgotten friend.
Dismiss suspicion and replace it with trust.
Write a letter.
Give a soft answer.
Encourage youth.
Manifest your loyalty in word and deed.
Keep a promise.
Forgo a grudge.
Forgive an enemy.
Apologize.
Try to understand.
Examine your demands on others.
Think first of someone else.
Be kind.
Be gentle.
Laugh a little more.
Express your gratitude.
Welcome a stranger.
Gladden the heart of a child.
Take pleasure in the beauty and wonder of the earth.
Speak your loveand then speak it again.
-President Howard W. Hunter
