I don't know the meaning of all things. Or, even, really very many things. I did realize one important truth this weekend: I may complain that I never win at Settlers, but it's not really my goal. I play to have fun. If I can have fun and not win, then it's still a good game for me. (If I don't have fun and don't win, not so good.) Feel free to apply that to life in general if you wish. (In case you're wondering how things went: if we had agreed to play to 12, I would have won. Instead, Russ won. As usual.) Well, I’ll certainly agree with the last part of the scripture you quote.

Craig has been Stake President and Home Teacher to the internet since about 1994, I think. For example, read <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/soc.religion.mormon/browse_thread/thread/ce9f7609a96e7173/f011f50a177b58df?lnk=st&q=&rnum=1&hl=en#f011f50a177b58df" rel="nofollow">P-Day</a>. A wonderful, inspiring and faith-promoting story. He writes stuff like that all the time. I can't seem to drag him over here, though.
