and when I say cold front, I mean like upper 80's lower 90's and man has
it felt good. It got here last night and I have been enjoying every
minute of it. If our area wasn't so dang big we would ride our bikes all
week. but because of time and size we cant do that.
So think week we had our bumps in the road. We were trying to apply
some of the new principles that we have learned recently however, we
focused too much of our time in one area and left other areas out to
dry, if you will. And because we weren't reaching our goals for the
week, we got a little stressed out and started getting a little snappy
with each other which didn't make for the best end of the week
experience. And because we weren't getting along we didn't have the
spirit, and because we didn't have the spirit we didn't teach by the
Lord's way, therefore we didn't see a ton of success this week.
Spiritual Lesson and summary of the week all wrapped up into one this
week. who could have thought that it could happen? It was also a very
humbling experience, trying not to blame my companion and picking out
his faults but rather do some introspection and figure out what I can
do, to work better with my companion. From doing so I was able to love
my companion even more in times of difficulty and not seeing eye to eye.
and one me thing. I FINISHED CLEANING THE APARTMENT! I've kind of
turned into a clean freak while being out here....i think i have OCD,
but that's besides the point. Anyways back to the apartment. Every
apartment I get to I've done an overhaul in cleaning. Fortunately enough
the apartments have been fairly new so there hasn't been a ton of stuff
as well as there have been other missionaries to help me clean. The
apartment I live in now is a tiny one bedroom/one bath 2 man aprtment
that the church has rented out for YEARS, I'm talking about decades. So
when I got here I had a hay day. I've been throwing things out left and
right, some stuff dating back to the early 2000's....FINALLY, this
morning I cleaned out the Fridge. a Feat only fit for champions and I
live to tell the tale. Now I can sleep peacefully and happily.
Love you whomever receives this
Love,
Elder Browning
