Dear Reader,
Bruno Mars. I have no idea who this kid is, but his song "Just the Way you Are" is really good. He emphatically states the truth about how beautiful women are. However, I want to take the time to add/rephrase a little bit of what he says that may sound a little harsh, but it is true.
In the song, Bruno says, "There's not a thing that I would change." I would like to point out that all you women out there (And men, if you want to keep things kosher), should change many things. Now, that doesn't mean they have to change all at once. I know many girls who I would consider dating. In fact, my Bishop has encouraged us to look at every person as a child of God and as a prospective candidate for creating an eternal marriage. One of the greatest parts of getting to know someone is helping them to become better.
So, Bruno has a point in saying that we should love people "just the way [they] are." My hope and dream is that every person whom I accept as they are will continue to become better in every way possible. Again, it's not an overnight process. But that's part of the joy of getting to know people. In my case, that's part of the joy of dating and eventually getting married. I know some who are very good people. They have few flaws. I love them for who they are. I love myself despite the many shortcomings I have. I also know that we can make changes to become even more beautiful than we already are through the Atonement of Jesus Christ.
I love that song. The tune is really catchy. :)
