I thought a lot about titles in our lives. What makes us who we are? What titles do we often hear others address us? I know that some of the times I've notice within the echo that some of whom we associate with tend to title us with some undefined term such as "gay" when really they meant lame, or stupid. We start to ponder these things sometimes and often I find myself in anger and separated from the world. Then we begin to notice other people and want to be part of their role. A lot of choices are mixed up due to this. And it really is unfortunate that some think they were really born to be gay or lesbian. I thought this was an interesting observation and discussion in class.

One of the things that I am really thankful for is my culture, my heritage. I don't know that we all have the same intentions, drive, or whatever build from within our own cultures. But one thing I am grateful for is that we were all born with one. Now eventually everyone unites under the culture of the Savior, but each of us have our own views as well and how we identify things.
I think that cultures no matter where from is centered on families. As we learned this week about some of the value system and set of beliefs that creates certain cultures. Most all of them are similar, some in background and others in traditions.
The culture of the family was most interesting to me. I was glad that brother Williams demonstrated some of reality in class. In most times in those discussion I felt most affected by it. Everyone is trying to reach their goals of happiness. And it's interesting to note that those goals are mainly about bringing families from areas where they can't progress and enjoy freedom and privileges. As the Nephi taught in the Book of Mormon, all who come to this land is led by the Lord. This is a land where families can enjoy the blessings of the gospel. I really enjoyed this week's lesson.
