Sometimes I almost feel like it's criminal to live in such a beautiful city

Had breakfast on the eighteenth floor of Zion's Bank tower overlooking City Creek and Temple square, the Capitol, the U of U while attending a meeting of a non-profit organization seeking to empower kinship parenting; then a day of business at my office with a great staff; a swim at Golds; and then driving home in a magical sunset--we have it so great--it is so beautiful here.

In the meeting I learned--presided over by "Elder Merril Bateman" that 1 out of 10 kids are being cared for by kin--about 83,000 in Utah and we are actually a little higher than the national average for broken homes and most issues involve substance addiction according to the people running the meeting if I heard it right--very curious thing here in "Zion," amidst such grandeur. Sigh.
