• “I want you to know that there have always been some difficulties in mortal life, and there always will be. But knowing what we know, and living as we are supposed to live, there really is no place, no excuse, for pessimism and despair. …

• “… I hope you won’t believe all the world’s difficulties have been wedged into your decade, or that things have never been worse than they are for you personally, or that they will never get better. I reassure you that things have been worse and they will always get better. They always do—especially when we live and love the gospel of Jesus Christ and give it a chance to flourish in our lives” (“An Anchor to the Souls of Men,” Ensign, Oct. 1993, p. 70).

Am I crazy? Yes I think so! I just joined team in training to help find a cure for blood cancer. Any donations will go towards helping save lives. I need to raise $3,900! I will be taking part in the half marathon in San Francisco! Josh is doing this with me, except he is doing an Olympic triathlon in Washington DC! Together we have to raise $8,000! These two trips will be my first time on an airplane! So excited!

You can go to my website here and donate and see my progress!:)
