"You are good. But it is not enough just to be good. You must be good for something. You must contribute good to the world. The world must be a better place for your presence. And the good that is in you must be spread to others...." -Gordon B. Hinckley
I would like to say that I'm good. I'm not too sure what I'm good for yet. Hopefully I'll be good for something one day. I absolutely love this. Everytime I hear this quote or think of it, it just makes me want to do better. Do better in every single thing I do. I want to go feed homeless kids in third world countries and donate my wardrobe to kids in Africa...but today while I was thinking about this, I realized to be good for something and contribute something to the world, it doesn't have to be a huge thing. I realized I could be good for something as small as making someone smile, or making something a little easier for someone. I could be good for just being an example for others that I'm around and spread good that way. I don't think I'm the only one who thinks this way, that to make a contribution to the world, has to be something BIGG. It doesn't. President Hinckley is freakin awesome. Enough said.
