Did you notice I did say it’s probably an ad site for online diplomas.

Also, I did say that in August 2010. Then there was some signs that there had been some kind of a vote and the site bestbloggers.org still worked.

It’s time to take it down, anyways, so thanks for reminding. I hadn’t noticed your comment there… got stuck in moderation. I don’t usually modify comments, unless there’s clearly ad hominem attacks or shocking vulgarities.

Hey Velska,

Hate to break it to you but I think that Blog Award is a complete scam. Their site is just trying to get people to sign up for PhD programs and there was no public vote that I could see. Also, I tried to go to “bestbloggers.org” and it seems like it isn’t even a real site.

Keep up the great work though!

[...] my faith community and my own worthiness. It would be difficult to explain concisely, so read my early posts like this. To be very concise, I have MDD. And MDD is not a joke, no matter how much one tries to call honest [...]

Definitely imagine that that you stated. Your favorite justification seemed to be on the internet the simplest factor to
be mindful of. I say to you, I definitely get irked at
the same time as other folks consider concerns that they
plainly don’t recognise about. You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest as smartly as outlined out the entire thing without having side-effects , folks could take a signal. Will probably be again to get more. Thanks

Thanks for letting me know. I wonder if you’re the first one who’s really read this article?

Anywho, as I said, thanks. I’ll correct the link.

Great post! The Sunstone article you refer to describing common patterns in crisis of faith experiences is actually in issue #155. You may want to change your link!

In the essence, life can be pretty ugly and horrible. However, we can choose how we react: are we making things better or worse?

Thanks for writing this! It's very pertinent. My view on all the warfare in the Book of Mormon is that it lays it out for us, plain and simple, that life isn't always sunny and happy. There are really horrors in the world if we just look. Now of course, life isn't constant sadness, as the BoM does a marvelous job pointing out, but sad things happen, Satan gets ahold of the hearts of men and treachery happens all around us. The important thing to remember, though, is that our Heavenly Father has not given up on us, nor will he ever. If we but keep his commandments we will know no greater happiness than what He has to offer.
