The sky, with it’s dark, looming clouds from the storm on one side and bright blue sky on the other side, was an interesting, picturesque painting. As the sun descended, the sky was full of different hues. Various shades of blue were accented by misty gray, white tips, and golden amber. The amber changed to rose as the sun set. The sun gave it’s final farewell as it lined the purple mountains with rose, amber, and yellow light. Its rays streaked up from behind the mountains, reaching up through the colors and into the radiant blue.

Parents, don't dress your girls like tramps - CNN
There really is not much more I can say about this article that is not said in the article. He's got a point. It is not the retailers that's the problem. The problem is the consumers. Retailers will only put out what we will buy. If we want to stop this kind of trend in our society, we need to make sure we are upholding our own standards in our lives. We need to teach our children those standards and values and teach them how to live amongst those who have different standards. These things would not exist in this society (and especially would not be so present) if we held to the standards we profess.

Mormon 8:30
And there shall also be heard of wars, rumors of wars, and earthquakes in divers places.
I have been thinking about the signs of the times since watching the horrible events unfold in Japan. I have put together the following map of events I remember reading about from this year so far. Feel free to click on the pins to see more information. Zoom in and out. Amazing, isn't it? We are only in March, and the map is quite covered. Please leave comments.
