Categorizing Sections

I chose to categorize the sections alphabetically. I went through and wrote down the most important priciples or themes in each of the sections and then put them in alphabetical order. There are about 20 categories because the principles in these specific sections don't start with every letter of the alphabet, however some sections go under more than one category because they contained two or more important principles.
I thought of a few other ways of categorizing the sections like by people, places, commandments, etc. but when I tried organizing the sections into their respective categories, it seemed chaotic and confusing. I am an organized person, so this was not at all appealing to me. So when I thought of doing it alphabetically, it fit perfectly. Each section had its own special place and was easy to find.
I wouldn't say that people should study the Doctrine and Covenants alphabetically, that would kind of be like reading the dictionary. However, I do think it would be convient if you are studying it by topic. Then you could just choose a topic, maybe one you were taught on Sunday, and then look it up alphabetically and there would be a list of the sections you could study for the week. It would be very convient.
I personally like how the Doctrine and Covenants are organized now. It is very logical. I am able to study the revelations and also visualize what the saints were going through at that specific time. Chronological order is perfect for the Doctrine and Covenants.
