Okay, Shelli.  This is for me and for you.  I woke up today with some inspiration that I followed and it led me to some answers to my little problem of last night.  It actually got me on a right track, and I intend to continue to ponder the idea.  The thing that flashed into my  mind was the theme of Southern Virginia University where Nicholas has just finished his freshman year.  I have seen it on some of their advertisements, but I remember it from the open house that the two of us attended while Nicholas was checking it out.  Being a small liberal arts university they use 'The Genius of Small' as their motto or theme.  They are talking about the intimacy of the place where the students get more attention and can be really involved.  It is a model that works well for them, and I believe that Nicholas has really enjoyed his time there as well as flourished as a student.  But I took that thought to a little place.  I thought that I needed to step back and start to appreciate the little things in my life.  I knew there was a scripture that addressed that idea and I found it this morning:  Alma 37: 6 'Now ye may suppose that this is foolishness, but behold I say unto you that by small and simple things are great things brought to pass; and small means in many instances doth confound the wise.' I suggest that you read verse 7 too.  The hint to me was to look small instead of big.  So I tried that today.  I did small things.  I appreciated small gains.  I tried to just keep busy with small tasks.  I found that it helped me recognize small victories.  It wasn't as much a change in what I was doing, but in the way that I perceived what I was doing.  I found it to have dramatically changed my frame of mind.  It was good medicine for me.  I hope to delve into the truth of it more tonight and maybe I'm on the verge of developing a new and valuable character trait.  It won't hurt, and it may be a big, big help.  Try it!
