6 May 2013

My week did go quite well. it was strange actually. this was one of the first weeks that every day in our planners was full by the start of the week. we had plans for the whole week... almost every moment... and we had to squeeze extras in. it was great. it helps me to value this time more.
we had an exchange with the sister in Rhiwbina (which is right next to Cardiff.... i miss cardiff.... i'm a tad bit jealous of their area.... though i definitely love Heads of the Valleys) it was fun to get out and work in another area. expecially because the weather has been so incredibly awesom lately! sunny every day. so different from what i am used to. this country is soooo much more beautiful when the sun is shining. i wish i could share it with everyone. i hope i can afford to come back out here one day.... but i'm not so sure. :(
 
welp. we have a few great investigators right now. they are all so different. R. is still set on his baptismal date for 24 may.... he is rather inspirational to me. :)
 
we've done a bit of finding in the past few days as well.... which is quite enjoyable in the good weather :) and we always have the most interesting conversations with people. i really feel as though i'm discovering the world just by meeting people. every one is so different. SO! different thoughts and opinions, different ways of reacting to the same line.... no wonder missionaries don't use memorized lessons anymore.... no two people in the entire world learn the same way at the same speed. seeing this helps me grow in my respect for other people's faiths, for their struggles and joys. sometimes i just want to talk and talk to people just to better understand them. i suppose that's the idea, huh?
 
 
I LOVE YOU!  Have a great day!!!!! :)
