sometimes it seems like all we see in the media is all the bad and corrupt things happening around us. on a daily basis, i think about what the world will be like when dallin and ella are teenagers. what will i be facing as a parent? how will i teach them to want to choose good over evil when evil will be more attractive?
i admit sometimes i’m sort of a doomsday thinker and i wonder how i can be positive about the future.
BUT…all it takes is for me to see something good happening and i realize that if we look for the good, we will find it. (how’s that for being pollyanna, eh?)
and so, a wonderful "pollyanna" mission companion sent me a link to something incredible today. i was moved and inspired. it renewed my faith in the good.
click the pic.
and for a little more background on dick and rick hoyt watch this.
i think i’ll go out and be "pollyanna" today. how about you?

Thanks, Cherie! That extra background link is beautiful! With the Gospel of Christ, we never will have to run alone, no? Ah, the good. Thanks again, you say it all so eloquently!
Oh, cherie….that video gave me the chills and brought tears to my eyes!! What an incredible video. What an incredible love. Thank you. How inspiring is that?! I completely relate to your post.
