All About Me

-


I am an 18 year who just started her first semester of college. For me this consists of living on my own for the first time, taking college courses for the first time, living out of state, and learning how to balance other things on top of it all. This can sound very overwhelming sometimes, but I am grateful for the amazing family who set a foundation for me to succeed in life. I come from a family of 7. This includes my dad, my mom, and four sisters. We love to play card games, watch movies, go to the zoo, play outside, do crafts, eat dinner, and so much more together. My favorite place to be is at home with my family! I am excited for the journey I have to prepare myself to have a wonderful home and family of my own!

Coming to know your true identity and purpose!

-
"All human beings—male and female—are created in the image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son or daughter of heavenly parents, and, as such, each has a divine nature and destiny. Gender is an essential characteristic of individual premortal, mortal, and eternal identity and purpose." - Gordan B. Hinkley Have you ever asked yourself, who am I really? Do I have a purpose? Where did I come from? Why am I here? You are not alone! Many people have asked this question. This is what I have come to learn about my identity and my purpose in life...

As I got into my teenage years there was a lot of confusion in the world about this truth. However, what I know is that t his knowledge  makes me h...

Parenting is a world that I have not come to yet. I have however been the child in a home with parents. Every single home and set of parents, rear their children a little different; obviously because they have different children, different needs, different cultures, etc. However, there is defiantly some "better" ways to parent. As a parent, you are to provide children with their needs and the opportunity to grow into good human beings and ultimately eternal beings. It is a great responsibility, yet an even greater blessing. I would like to share with you a basic pattern in helping parents to help fulfill their children's needs and recognize why children may be acting the way they are. All people have needs in their lives. These needs are even greater for children and teens from their parents. Where there is a need, their is ways to seek to fulfill that need for good and bad. This pattern has three connecting factors which consist of needs of child/teen, child's mistak...

The Value of Work

-
What do you think when you hear the word work? In the world today, work is something that people try to avoid. I hear people say, I should get payed for doing this, I hate my job, why do I have to do chores, I want to grow up and marry a rich man, etc. Yes, work is hard sometimes, it is time consuming, you will fail, and you will have to sacrifice, but what it teaches you is worth it all. In the For The Strength of Youth book it states, "Work is honorable. Developing the capacity to work will help you contribute to the world in which you live. It will bring you an increased sense of self-worth. It will bless you and your family, both now and in the future. There are many ways to teach work in a family unit; through chores, working in the yard or garden, service, etc. I believe that the actual task is not what is important, yet the lessons that can be learned are things that will carry with you into the future. These may include... Learning to rely and trust in each other. Shared g...
