That is the title of a very important address to me. And it can be found here.
Lately I've been thinking a lot about this talk. Seriously, there is so much that goes on in our world today. So much of what we have is a blessing. The internet, TV, books, sewing, crafting, cooking, exercising, etc. I seriously am thankful for my talents and interests, but I've been thinking a lot about the most important things we have in this life.
While it's good to have those things, talents, hobbies, etc, isn't it better to do something more worthwhile? Instead of spending time on the internet or watching TV, it would be better if I was exercising my mind, spirit and body, pushing myself to learn more and to become better? Sometimes I think I just need a big wake up call.
Too often I've put aside the more important things for those things of less importance. And, I've decided that I need to prioritize more. I guess these can be considered midyear resolutions.
Top Priorities:
1) Family
2) Church
3) Health (exercising and eating right)
4) Talents
5) Self Reliance/ Food Storage
Here's to the next 6 months of 2011 and, hopefully, I can remember these priorities for the rest of my life.
