Two things I've read this week inspired me. Both come from President Thomas S. Monson. When I think about how I want to be, what I want to become, these pretty much sum it up:
To express gratitude is gracious and honorable, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live with gratitude ever in our hearts is to touch heaven.
Charity is having patience with someone who has let us down. It is resisting the impulse to become offended easily. It is accepting weaknesses and shortcomings. It is accepting people as they truly are. It is looking beyond physical appearance to attributes that will not dim through time. It is resisting the impulse to categorize others.
