Knowledge, one of the greatest blessings Heavenly Father has given us

I had quite an interesting conversation with a friend of mine who happens to be a TA for a Chemistry class. My friend talked to me about the work ethic he had growing up and how he pushed himself to study and do well in school. I sadly did not have much to say during this conversation. I became very envious of my friend's work ethic. This conversation went on for a good hour or so and I became very inspired, both in motivation towards a better study habbit, and spiritually. Heavenly Father great us a great gift, in fact, this gift is the only thing we can bring with us into the eternities. This gift is knowledge. I have not shown much appreciation for this gift (yet). School has always been fairly easy and I've never had to work hard for a good grade. Unfortunatley my work ethic is not as effective as it use to be. College slapped me in the face with reality. I'm not quite use to having to study constantly but I'm getting the hang of it. The conversation I had with my friend made me realize how important this gift is and if we do not use our knowledge to its fullest potential, it will be held against us at judgment.

Don't you love inspirational nights? Even if the ones that break you down, because it helps you build yourself back up to a better you!
