That ye may not be weary

 D&C 88:124 teaches "Cease to be idle; cease to be unclean; cease to find fault one with another; cease to sleep longer than is needful." However, after a few decades of observation, I think I've concluded that it is easier to "cease to be idle" or "cease to find fault one with another" if you "cease to sleep _shorter_ than is needful." I hope that someday a footnote will be added with this correction.

 I count to six fairly often when we're out and about. And I'm guessing the woman who stopped her walk to stare at us for a solid minute was also counting to six in French.  I guess I could have yelled "Cease!" if I wanted her to stop counting.
