Current struggles: Doubt. Fear. Worry. They are NOT your best friends. I REPEAT: They ARE NOT your best friends. Do not entertain these thoughts (advice to self). I've been feeling super numb and worried and all of the above. But I will not falter. I will finish! I'm determined to not give into the confusion and worry. This distance has made me feel like he is imaginary, which is an unsettling feeling. But I know it's normal. So I'm holding on to what I've known in my heart for the past 3 years.
My best friend rocks!! He is doing so well! He has already had a baptism at the end of February AND continues to touch the lives of sooo many. Him and Elder Dickerson have gotten so many people to come to church! They're awesome!!
I remember at the very beginning of this wait wishing I was already 3 months in.. thinking that it was gonna take forever (and it kinda did, yet it didn't.) Explaining this wait through words is just impossible.. haha. I've realized that you just have to experience things to get a better understanding, which is obvious for all things in life.
My boy is AMAZING. I still can't wait for the future!! And I'm striving to be the happiest I can be at this strange time in my life. It's this wait that has helped me to better rely on my Savior and my faith in the Lord.
My "lucky day" just so happened to also be St. Patrick's Day!!!
This is the St. Patrick's Day/March package I sent Elder Mejia during the first part of the month.
The pictures are pretty self-explanatory ;)
