RISE AND SHOUT

We are so excited that the BYU football season is upon us again! This is our seventh straight year of having season tickets. The opening game of the season was this afternoon and we had a great time--in spite of temperatures in the upper 90s, a packed stadium, wearing dark shirts, and seats in the direct sunshine. Yes, it was a bit on the warm side, but we came away with a big win so it was worth it. Go Cougars!

Say "YES"!

My Creed

*To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind.

*To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person I meet.

*To make all my associates feel that there is something worthwhile in them.

*To look at the sunny side of everything and make my optimism come true.

*To think only the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best.

*To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own.

*To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

*To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature I meet.

*To give so much time to improving myself that I have no time to criticize others.

*To be too secure for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

*To think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words, but in small deeds.

*To live in the faith that the whole world is on my side, so long as I am true to the best that is in me.
