Divorce: A Trend in American Society?

Nowadays, divorce rates have been much elevated in comparison to years before. More people quit from their marriage even before really trying to keep it and strength it. Divorce has become a harmful trend in American Society and it is hugely impacting on all of us. It's now more common that someone near us has been divorced. Divorce is an an option for those who desperately need it and who are truly suffering because of the neglect/abuse/infidelity of their spouse. But, should we just sit and watch this happen through our eyes or should we do something to avoid it happening to us? Elder Oaks in this video said that divorce was not the first option we should turn to when things are going bad. A person must first sit down and see if both are willing to repent and turn to the Lord. Only then can the marriage be saved, just one person can't carry a marriage.

Introduction

I first want to start this blog saying that I truly know that families are forever. The only way to get exaltation is trough being sealed in the temple and having an eternal family. I love my family. I have both of my parents together and three sisters who live in Trujillo, Peru. I miss them a lot while I am here attending school, however I know that all sacrifices are worth it. Getting a better education at BYU-I, really far from home, will later bless me to have a spiritual and well economically established family. I love learning about family and I will probably major in Marriage and Family. I want to share a beautiful and inspiring video that will help us remember the immense value our family has in our lives. 

This is a picture of me and my sisters :D I miss them so much!!
