Some great advice from President Monson about finding joy through service:
"To measure the goodness of life by its delights and pleasures is to apply a false standard. The abundant life does not consist of a glut of luxury. It does not make itself content with commercially produced pleasure, mistaking it for joy and happiness. To find real happiness, we must seek for it in a focus outside ourselves. No one has learned the meaning of living until he has surrendered his ego to the service of his fellowmen. Service to others is akin to duty, the fulfillment of which brings true joy."
(Thomas S. Monson, Ensign, May 1990, p.92)
Doesn't this attitude of selfless service remind you of Clodhopper?
Love,
Dad/Mark
