To all you Pinterest haters...and lovers.

I love it when Pinterest is a Divine Signature in my day.

Yes, I do believe that it is a time-wasting site, and I admit fully to the temptation. But. As the prophets have said about technology, it can be used as a force for good!

Almost every single time I get on Pinterest, I notice a quote from a Prophet, a General Authority, one of their wives, the scriptures, C.S. Lewis, or another wise leader--something gospel related and inspiring. I pin them to my "Inspirational" board and use it as resource for bad days, troubled times, talks, sharing with friends, and to post quotes on FB. What an amazing tool to be able help it be seen by millions around the world.

Elder Bednar stated:

"Social media channels are global tools that can personally and positively impact large numbers of individuals and families. And I believe the time has come for us as disciples of Christ to use these inspired tools appropriately and much more effectively to testify of God, the Eternal Father, and His plan of happiness for His children." - Elder David A. Bednar at today's #BYUdevo.

So. #ShareGoodness
I'ts just a small example, but all technology included: here goes to taking the challenge to more effectively testify of God and His plan for each of us! And to enabling Divine Signatures in another's day through the blessings we use daily.

Recipe for Daily Happiness

Yesterday I went to Michael's to get some craft supplies- I'm learning how to crochet! I walked up to the checkout to pay for my items. A sweet old man started ringing them up and asked me how I was doing. I replied (like normal), "Good, thanks, how are you?" He smiled at me and said something similar to "You know, I'm doing fabulous going on fantabulous!" I smiled and told him I was glad he was doing so well. He proceeded to tell me he likes to show his customers that they can choose to make their day even better.

What a wise old man. 

This has got me thinking about the Plan of Happiness and the gift of agency. What a daily, hourly Divine Signature we each have--and I know in my case--under appreciate.

The sweet man's recipe for daily happiness:

1. Choose to progress.

I'd like to add an old Bishop's 3 suggestions (all require agency):

       2.  Prayer 

       3.  Scripture Study

       4.  Service

       5.  Smiling

CHOOSE to have a very happy day!

*That wise man was the perfect example of how we can magnify our callings of discipleship: serving others and sharing our testimony allllll the time.
