− | Virginia: Well teachers, when you first said that [[question]] I thought of Gwen's question to Ken tonight, when she said, "what do these [[three concentric circles]] mean?" And it really is very similar because the circles are a [[symbol]] of what it means to have God in our life. I'm not sure that this year someone would come up to me and say, "why are you [[happy]]; why are you [[positive]]?" (Laughter.) But it has certainly been my [[experience]] in the [[past]]. In fact my [[reputation]] at Bonneville School has been until recently that I was a [[naive]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polly_Anna Polly Anna]. And I guess that if someone were to say something to me now, and certainly there are individuals that do, I would point to the fact that, what ever happens, God loves me. That's a pretty powerful influence in one's life. So I think that's what I would say. | + | Virginia: Well teachers, when you first said that [[question]] I thought of Gwen's question to Ken tonight, when she said, "what do these [[three concentric circles]] mean?"
