Miscellaneous Monday: New Look, Same Great Info

Today I decided to give this blog a new look.  I liked the old look, but found that if I wanted to look up a post by label, I had to hover over some small thing to the right (which wasn't doable on a mobile device), so I went back to a classic blog look with labels, and page lists to the side.

The trees in this new background go with my blog name of still planting for tomorrow.  From one of my first blog posts about how this blog got this name:

" Here is the quote that inspired me:

“Some of the brethren … approached [President Wilford Woodruff] and … inquired of him as to when he felt the end would be—when would be the coming of the Master? These, I think, are not his exact words, but they convey the spirit of his reported reply: ‘I would live as if it were to be tomorrow—but I am still planting cherry trees!’ I think we may well take this as a page for our own book and live as if the end might be tomorrow—and still plant cherry trees! In worrying about things that are beyond our reach, we should not overlook our opportunities with our own families and friends; in worrying about possible eventualities we should not neglect the things that need to be done here and now, and that are within our reach” (Elder Richard L. Evans, in Conference Report, Apr. 1950, 105–6). (emphasis added by me to show my inspiration)

I love the explanation Elder Evans gives to this simple, yet profound acknowledgement that we need to live and prepare for tomorrow and for eternity, we simply need to take the opportunity that is ours to be with our family, to do the things that need to be done now, and to prepare for tomorrow."
