Let's make it better: Let's become

I found these two rocks the other day. 
So I picked them up, put them in my purse and walked away.
It may have seemed silly to pick up some rocks. 
They're just rocks.
Well, that's what I usually think.
However, this time was different. It may be because I'm taking a natural disasters class and have become a tiny bit obsessed with nature. 
(especially volcanoes)
I picked up these rocks because I felt them to be one of the closest things I have to Heavenly Father. 
They were created by Him.
And then I began thinking of the formation of these rocks.

These rocks didn't just exist as they have come to be. They were formed together through weathering, erosion, or through cooling. It was a process. Now, these rocks are strong, unbreakable rocks. 
I began relating this to us, to people.
We were not born into this mortal life with our purpose already fulfilled. We were not born perfect. 
But through life's experiences we can progress and we can become. 
We can become those strong foundations and one day be perfect. 
This short amount of time we have here on Earth is a time for progression. 
Take advantage of it and become the person God wants you to be.
