“Dare to stand alone.”

-Thomas S. Monson

       What this means is to stand for what you believe. Even if everyone is against you. Just because you are alone, doesn’t mean you aren’t correct. It can be one correct person against 100 wrong people. Majority doesn’t mean it is right. For example, if you are in an argument with those 100 people. They can be saying that stealing is okay. While you, standing alone says it is not. We all know it is okay not to steal. Choose the right place to stand.
