To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to
bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own
mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to
Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.

My Thoughts:
Chaste, Clean, A daughter of God. As a latter day saint I will have virtue. I will set stander-eds and live by them. I will dress modestly, Not date until I'm 16, Prepare to be a righteous wife and mother, Not swear or do drugs, live so others can tell who i am; a Mormon. I know it I live it I love it. I am a child of God.
-Dassia
