This was attached to the cookies my visiting teacher dropped off today.

"Women of God can never be like women of the world. The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. . . . We have enough women of fame and fortune;
we need more women of faith"
(Margaret D. Nadauld, "The Joy of Womanhood," Liahona, Jan. 2001, 18; Ensign, Nov. 2000, 15).
Don't you love this reminder? It seems the world we live in is becoming more and more 'get you before you get me' kind of place. We often think if we don't take care of ourselves, who's going to? Therefore, we rationalize rudeness and selfishness and pass up the opportunities to grow closer to our Heavenly Father.
I'm not preaching, just letting you know what's on my mind...
