I can't believe another week has gone by. Sorry, I know
that's unoriginal, I prolly say it just about every week, but it always catches me off guard.
I'm really enjoying myself more and more every day! The
things I've started to improve on most recently are probably 1) Living in
the moment and loving it, and 2) Focusing on others. I've never
been good at that first one (you can testify to how impatient I've been my
entire life ;) and I used to be really good at number 2, but I've felt
like I've been super stressed lately and because of that I haven't
given others the attention I should. Two of my favorite quotes
apply to these two improvement points I've given myself: "Love is
the one thing that everyone needs, that no one can find on their own, and that everyone else can freely give." And, of course, "We've
not a moment to lose."
Even as I just talk to Elders who are having a hard time in
the evening instead of minding my own business for the whole night,
I come out even less stressed and much happier.
YES! Tsukagoshi san's baptism date is this next
Sunday!!!!!! We're so excited for him and he's so excited too! It's going to
be a wonderful evening. We had a baptism for a new Chinese
member in the Hiroo ward (remember where I serve there are two wards, the
Japanese where I serve and the English ward where the other 4 Elders
serve,) and it was such a wonderful experience. I love
baptisms. Listening to the elders sing primary songs makes me nastolgic ;)
Ok, I know it's not much this week, but I hope the videos make
up for it. We're running late as usual and I have to wrap
up.
Take care, and I can't wait for Mother's Day either! :) I'm
looking so forward to it! I love you!
P-day this week was awesome! First the temple, and the Odaiba. It was like being in a dream, and I accidentally took a million pictures. I hope you enjoy them. . . If not, sorry ;)
We had these goofy lil scooters we had to attach to our bikes or
they wouldn't let us walk across the bridge. Maybe a bit
dangerous.... ITS SO HIGH UP!!! I was in love with this bridge. I wanna go
back right now.
Cho Chorou caught a baby crab!
