1 Nephi 17

Last night I read this chapter from the Book of Mormon, and I remember falling in love with it on my mission...and last night I recalled again why, because it's soooooo good...a million life lessons. It's packed with them. What a great prophet Nephi was. My SWEET cousin Joseph (the one sporting off the "buzz racket" below) randomly told me at the dinner table (when he was nine years old, mind you) that he couldn't wait to go to heaven to meet Nephi. Oh, Joseph I couldn't agree more!

Remember Anderson Cooper....?! I don't know why I just thought of that, but I remember when he was a 'slight' hero of yours too!:-)

Seriously...I love your goodness and how uplifting you are all of the time to me. When you were on your mission, I used to really look forward to your letters. Now, I look forward to blog postings. THANKS!

I couldn't tell which verse you were specifying so I decided to read the entire chapter on my way to school this morning and work. It proved to be helpful in getting me through the day.

I, too, share in your respect of Nephi. He just seems so real. Thanks for the suggested reading!
