"While there may be value in decluttering our lives of material things we no longer need, when it comes to things of eternal importance—our marriages, our families, and our values—a mind-set of replacing the original in favor of the modern can bring profound remorse."
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Out with the old and in with the new
is tempting for a man to do;
new job, new wife, new car -- yessir!
He changes all in such a blur.
And women are not much exempt
from treating old things with contempt.
New clothes; new shoes; new lifestyle -- wow!
The past is not a sacred cow.
But just imagine our chagrin
if God should want to trade us in!
And so we'd better mend our ways,
and stick with those from early days!
