Sibling Rivalry

Okay, so I have been reading my BOM and it really is frightening what can become of sibling rivalry! I know.. I know.. I have heard the stories a thousand times.. but Laman and Lemuel were so upset about Nephi getting more than them, generations of hatred and war came about. I would hate to think that I was the cause of so much destruction, simply because I was jealous and spiteful.

Don't get me wrong, I am not jealous or spiteful of my siblings. I just find it scary how extreme things can become with such a slight error in judgement.. which we all can do every day of our lives! YAY!!

I would hope to be like Nephi, and be consistantly unwavering. (Wouldn't we all?) But alas, much work is still required. KEEP FORGING AHEAD!
