Rules, rules, rules!

We talked a lot about rules in class this week. My sister and I each made our own list and when we compared them, we found that we only had one rule in common. That seemed a little weird to me, so I was thinking about it and I realized that since we are separate people with different personalities and different weaknesses, different rules stand out more to each of us. When she read her list to me, I agreed with the rules she said and she agreed with mine but we both stuck with our lists. (On a side note, a lot of the rules on her list dealt with the different rules applied to the boys and girls in our family. I thought it was funny. She is kind of a feminist).

Interesting Thought

In class we were talking about research and the many different people who try to lead you to believe what they say. It's very hard to find reliable information on the internet. It occurred to me that this is probably part of Satan's plan. He wants it to be hard to find your way. He wants it to be difficult to find reliable information because the more people he deceives, the more people there will be who are miserable like he is. There is a not a lot of trustworthy information on the internet. That kind of reminded me of the "narrow is the way" concept. You have to hold fast to the credible sources or you will be led astray.

Starting Out On a Journey!

I'm beginning this blog for my Family 160 class at BYU-I. I'm looking forward to the opportunity to write down my thoughts and share them with anyone who is interested. Hopefully I'll be able to explain myself clearly and have the insights necessary to touch as many people as I can. I'm excited to start this online journal. Good luck to everyone else beginning this assignment.This is gonna be fun!
