bad day / good day
i don't know what it is, but lately i haven't been in the best of moods, or at least my fuse of patience has been shortened. i've been speaking my mind a lot and what has been on my mind hasn't been all that friendly. maybe it's pms. don't you love that excuse? ha. maybe i'm just tired. i don't know. i should just not talk to anyone for a few days, weeks, months. i'm at the point in time again where i just want to pick up and move away for awhile. i really haven't stayed put anywhere more than a year in the past 6 years of my life. "variety is the spice of life". i try to live by that phrase. next location: EUROPE. can't wait. september is too far away.
on a much more positive not: I went to a baptism tonight and it was incredible, the feeling i felt there. i know the guy, Doug, who was baptized because i went with the sister missionaries the first time to teach him, and then i went a second time. the way he found the gospel is unreal. let me just sum it up with saying that the two people who introduced him to the gospel both died shortly after meeting him. they were brother and sister, and died a month apart. the whole experience could've really pushed him further into the direction he was already headed (anti-organized religion, atheistic), but instead he felt peace at the funerals and felt the love among the members of the church. i'm so glad i got to participate in seeing him find what he was meant to. puts things into perspective for me, really.
