Malala Yousufzai is of good report and praiseworthy

Like another 14 year-old dear to many of my readers, Malala said a lot of things that people around her hated and disagreed with but that she unequivocally believed to be true and in need of being said.  She, too, was shot for her words and actions.  The difference is that Malala spoke out against the Taliban.  And today she's an inspiration to me.

May she and her family and her readers be blessed.

I'M GOING TO THE CLASS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE!!! "HAMPSHIRE" IS A HARD WORD TO KEEP TYPING AS I SPAZ ACROSS THE INTERWEBS!  AHHHHHHHHH!!!!

*faints!*

So excited!!!!!

Consecrated oil: Not just for men!

Moon tree, red thread from a blessingway, and my new oil vial

I'm not sure why I didn't record it in this post because that's the date recorded on the bottle of oil, but my ward gave a bottle of consecrated oil to every woman in the Relief Society.  That way everyone has their own supply, just in case, and none of the women are dependent on the men having their stuff together if a blessing is needed.

Ah, if only that way of thinking was fully extended.

For now, though, I'm rockin' this awesome little Tree of Life vial.  Thumbs up!  My ward is Of Good Report and Praiseworthy!  (I have said this for ages.)

Joanna Brook and Jon Stewart are of good report

...and praiseworthy.  It made me smile on a day when I needed smiles.
