My Journey from Birth to Present
One year at the temple, I met many people and made many friends from all over the place. We didn't have phones back then, so we only got to know each other at the temple and chatted when they visited the temple during their travels. I learned to be more composed; I no longer indulged in playful activities as I used to. I learned to listen. Hearing people's stories, understanding their reasons for coming to the temple, their circumstances, I realized that everyone has different situations in life—from the elderly to the young. Some don't want their children to suffer because of them, some are escaping love, some lack stable jobs, some haven't found their direction in life, and some are tired of the outside world.

Does America’s reputation for being a land of opportunity hold up for every people group? While it is apparent that the United States has failed to live up to its stated ideals, the proportion of people allowed to succeed has expanded over time. From the emancipation of slaves in 1863 to the women’s expansion of rights in 1920, or from the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to the allowance of homosexuality in 2003—and further, the sanctioning of homosexual marriage in 2015—the circle of inclusivity has ever widened as time has passed. However, not every group given equality under the law has thrived. Homosexuals have done increasingly well in the last two decades. While they do report a higher level of suicidal attempts when compared to the general population—63.18 per 100,000 and 14.04 per 100,000, respectively—they average a 10% higher rate of income than the general population.
