In my walking for fitness class today we did "Walking Wisdom." Every time we went around the track completely we exchanged the thought we had for a different one. One of them has stuck with me and I cannot forget it so here it is:
"Until you value yourself, you will not value your time. Until you value your time, you will not do anything with it." -- M. Scott Peck
Another quote I have been pondering came from an e-mail forward to my Institute teacher Bro. K. I don't know who wrote it but it rings true.
"What if the Book of Mormon is to us what a cell phone is to the rest of the world?"
I think it is very profound. Bro. K. went further to say "What if we carried a copy of the Book of Mormon everywhere with us instead of a cell phone. What if we treated it like a cell phone and cared for it and put as much time in learning from it and we do learning and using cell phones? Would you turn around an go home to get it if you forgot it like you do a cell phone?" To me it is having the gospel on my mind or more importantly the Savior more than things of the world.
Just a little inspiration. . .

That is a really good thought... though, I still can't help but think, as scary as some people drive while on the phone I am a lot happier they do that than if they read the BoM while driving.
Devout Mormons would become the scariest people on the road!
