Inspirational Text:

"16 And also, ye yourselves will succor• those that stand in need of your succor; ye will administer of your substance unto him that standeth in need; and ye will not suffer that the beggar• putteth up his petition to you in vain, and turn him out to perish.

17 Perhaps thou shalt say•: The man has brought upon himself his misery; therefore I will stay my hand, and will not give unto him of my food, nor impart unto him of my substance that he may not suffer, for his punishments are just—

18 But I say unto you, O man, whosoever doeth this the same hath great cause to repent; and except he repenteth of that which he hath done he perisheth forever, and hath no interest in the kingdom of God.

19 For behold, are we not all beggars•? Do we not all depend upon the same Being, even God, for all the substance which we have, for both food and raiment, and for gold, and for silver, and for all the riches which we have of every kind?

20 And behold, even at this time, ye have been calling on his name, and begging for a remission• of your sins. And has he suffered that ye have begged in vain? Nay; he has poured out his Spirit upon you, and has caused that your hearts should be filled with joy, and has caused that your mouths should be stopped that ye could not find utterance, so exceedingly great was your joy.

21 And now, if God, who has created you, on whom you are dependent for your lives and for all that ye have and are, doth grant unto you whatsoever ye ask that is right, in faith, believing that ye shall receive, O then, how ye ought to aimpart• of the substance that ye have one to another.

22 And if ye judge• the man who putteth up his petition to you for your substance that he perish not, and condemn him, how much more just will be your condemnation• for withholding your substance, which doth not belong to you but to God, to whom also your life belongeth•; and yet ye put up no petition, nor repent of the thing which thou hast done.

23 I say unto you, wo be unto that man, for his substance shall perish with him; and now, I say these things unto those who are rich• as pertaining to the things of this world.

24 And again, I say unto the poor, ye who have not and yet have sufficient, that ye remain from day to day; I mean all you who deny the beggar, because ye have not; I would that ye say in your hearts that: I give• not because I have• not, but if I had I would give•.

25 And now, if ye say this in your hearts ye remain guiltless, otherwise ye are condemned•; and your condemnation is just for ye covet that which ye have not received.
",Book of Mormon, Mosiah 4:16-25

"A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another."

John 13:34,35

Top Ten reasons the 80's were a cooler time to be a teenager
than the 90's:

10. MTV actually played videos in the 80's.

09. There was only one kind of Nike tennis shoes (White with a
red swoosh), and they didn't cost $125.

08. A comb in your back pocket was more practical and less
painful than a ring through your nose.

07. In the 80's playing video games actually meant going out
to DO something.

06. In the 80's, when you were out partying, you didn't have
to worry about your Mom calling you on your cell phone.

05. In the 80s we didn't have to worry about getting our heads
blown off at school - unless you put a whole pack of Pop Rocks in
your mouth and drank a coke.

04. Debbie Gibson vs. Britney Spears. New Kids on the Block
vs. N'Sync. New Edition vs. Hanson. Ok, that one's a draw.

03. In the early 80's there were kids in your high school who
could BUY ALCOHOL LEGALLY.

02. Feathered hair was easier to care for than dreadlocks.

And the number one reason the 80's were a cooler time to grow
up than the 90's:

01. In the 80's you didn't have to worry about your pants falling
down all the time. They were so tight we couldn't get them off!

"Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values
and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false
and the false with the true."

Martin Luther King, Jr., Strength To Love, 1963.
