One of the things we most love about President Thomas S. Monson is his willingness to beautifully share personal experiences with us.

Here he tells us of a time when as a little boy he made a poor decision.

In his mind he thought it would work out so perfectly.

Just use one little match to burn the weeds that would take forever to pull by hand.

He thought that it would somehow just go out when the circle was big enough for his friends to have a campfire.

But in reality it was not the best of plans.

He knew he was doing a wrong by using the match.

Now so many years later he easily could have kept this part of his life from us.

Instead he shares with us to teach us the lesson of obedience.

"Rules and laws are created to keep us safe."
