"We are enticed daily to pursue worldly pleasures that may divert us from the path to happiness. But the path to true and lasting happiness is, repeating the Prophet Joseph Smith's words, 'virtue, uprightness, faithfulness, holiness, and keeping all the commandments of God...' The more faithfully we keep the commandments of God, the happier we will be." - President James E. Faust
It should come as a surprise to nobody that materialism runs deep in our society today. Many people see the latest electronic gadget or other object they cannot live without and go to almost any lengths to possess it. And while it is true that such items may bring us moment of happiness, in the end all of the neat possessions we have acquired in this life will mean nothing. I hope that we will take President Faust's advice and find our happiness by keeping the commandments and following the example set forth by the Savior.
