melted blue otterpops
Random, I know.
Today I discovered a melted blue otterpop balanced precariously near my African drum. It is the second melted blue otterpop I have found there this week. Curious, don't you think? As luck would have it, both times the culprit who abandoned the blue otterpops left them at a slightly upward tilt. So, due to that piece of luck (or common sense) and the magical cohesive properties of water, the blue-hued liquid sugar had stayed in the plastic.
Next time, I think I'll go for pink.

A prophet speaks with God then tells the truth
"Now we have a world where people are confused, if you don't believe it, go and watch the news. We can get direction all along our way, if we heed the prophets - follow what they say."
I recently read a few forums discussing marriage and whether physical intimacy before marriage is justifiable. Wow, there is a whole lot of confusion in this world.
Just for the record, I am so grateful for my personal witness of a living prophet who speaks with God then tells us what is right. I know that chastity before marriage is a divine principle. And, no matter what confusion is going on in this world, I know that God will bless those who keep His commandments.
