Found a ladybird today. It is a day after the vernal equinox and a good sign. Perspective is amazing. I hope she/he liked my sweatpants as much as I do. They are super fluffy. I took this picture and about 20 others. But, I liked this one the most. I wonder how she sees me as I peer from above with her multidirectional sight, heart-shaped false eyes, and antennae. I wonder if I made her as happy and curious as she did me. I found her on the side walk and moved her to a bush. Grow and be happy my little spirit friend.

Concerning meat. Some is okay. It is a gift use it but, do not ever waste it. It is for winter only really. Appreciate it. Hunter philosophy.
D&C 89:
12 Yea, flesh also of beasts and of the fowls of the air, I, the Lord, have ordained for the use of man with thanksgiving; nevertheless they are to be used sparingly;
13 And it is pleasing unto me that they should not be used, only in times of winter, or of cold, or famine.
D&C 49:
18 And whoso forbiddeth to abstain from meats, that man should not eat the same, is not ordained of God;
19 For, behold, the beasts of the field and theco fowls of the air, and that which cometh of the earth, is ordained for the use of man for food and for raiment, and that he might have in abundance.
20 But it is not given that one man should possess that which is above another, wherefore the world lieth in sin.
21 And wo be unto man that sheddeth blood or that wasteth flesh and hath no need.

Verdict:
I need to eat less meat and add more grain/vegetable variety to my diet. Fish, eggs, and milk all seem fine. It is not like I eat a lot of meat. But, I think less is better. Try to find where hunters sell meat in the winter. Decision- Pescatarian except in winter. This law is open for interpretation regarding beer and seems more concerned with addictive behavior. I think addictive food/drink related behavior is more worrisome. I could not trace a General conference when tea, alcohol, and coffee was banned.

Something I heard and wrote down because I like it.  I think too much,  far too much, I need to stop it and enjoy myself for a moment without concerning myself with the rest of the world. I need to stop everything else and just feel. So, that one day you sleep in in your studio apartment naked because you got hot in the night and your landlord comes in while you are in bed. headsmack.  that one time when you leave your car lights on at the church and the elders have to jump your battery for you and it takes a half hour because the truck jumping you has a bad battery. general conference is this weekend.  Cleaning  Pescatarian Meal for 3ish days: Rice, Madras Lentils, spinach souffle, olive oil sardines, garlic salt Drink of week: Trader Joe's Ginger Turmeric Tea. As far a teas go, this is a 8.5/10 tea. It is deceptively sweet due to having a good amount of orange in it. There is also licorice in it but that flavor is more subtle whi...

Entry #8

11.28.2018 Getting an apartment with Ashlan and Rachel. Will move in Saturday Afternoon. Had an odd conversation with a proffessor this week. I have concerns with one of my classes. My grades are fine in all of my classes I don't care about them. I care about learning. And, to be honest, I love learning. I often hate being taught largely due to the number of hours of sitting involved. I try to always learn. Always. But, this teacher and class has been so disrespectful of the students and so wasteful of our time and requires us to play a game of guess in check with all of our assignments. I am not the only one who feels this way. The majority of the class talks poorly about this class. Students say whatever just live with it expressing apathy toward the conjuctive learning the normally accompanies a professor student relationship. I chose to confront the situation, because fact of the matter is with things I really care about. Empathy is the only option. I was frustrated one...

What is important is what we believe and how we put that into action. All big ideas tied to atonement.
