There are this many people walking the halls:
“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.” ~ Dr. Seuss
In this regard, my counsel to members would be to relax, lighten up, mellow out, and not get so huffy. While the gospel is sacred and serious, sometimes we take ourselves a little too seriously. A sense of humor, especially about ourselves, is an attribute worthy of development (Glenn L. Pace, “Follow the Prophet,” Ensign, May 1989, 25).
I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do. What I can do, I should do. And what I should do, by the grace of God, I will do.
--Edward Everett Hale

"True greatness...always requires regular, consistent, small, and sometimes ordinary and mundane steps over a long period of time." --Howard W. Hunter, "True Greatness", Ensign, May 1982, 19
"Remember that ofttimes the wisdom of God appears as foolishness to men, but the greatest single lesson we can learn in mortality is that when God speaks and a man obeys, that man will always be right." --Thomas S. Monson

Our normal tradition is to go to the Hillsboro Parade for the 4th and this year we changed tradition and went camping instead. I must say that I missed the parade, so thanks for the happy parade pictures. I feel much better now:0)
Oh, thank you thank you for the slideshow! I miss that place...especially on the 4th of July. I talk about the Monmouth parade nonstop to my friends and they always just laugh at me. It was great to be able to see it on your blog! Made my day...no month!
