Change of heart and mind

well only one of you knows i have been going back and forth for the past week about leaving Costa Rica and going home to take care of my Grandmother and to do my knee surgury. Well by the grace of Heavenly Father she is doing better and well as far as my knee goes i am gonna buy stock in pain killers here. I am currently looking for a spanish teacher and some friends. However i am changing day by day. I don`t even know if you will know me when i get back. (HEHE) really though i had an amazing experence this week with church and a baptism and some gringo elders (did not hurt one was cute and played the piano, come on i can`t change all at once) and then i got to do FHE with nancy`s family and this morning i made some changes that changed me from the inside this time. i`m starting over with El Libro De Mormon. i`m gonna finish it before confrence, and my 5 yeah anversiry date. Then i`m going to re-read the new testiment and then old. I figured if i want to stay out of trouble here i need to stay busy ;)

That and honestly it`s about time to really figure out what i want and what i believe and that is were i`m gonna plant my feet, and from that point i will NEVER go back, only forward.

I`m gonna challenge each of you right now stop and take 10 min a day and figure out who you are and where you REALLY want to go and then figure out what you need to do to get there and start running for it!

but remember it is by small and simple things that great things are brought to pass. so start small and end up on the mountain of the lord and we`ll have a bond fire. Don`t worry i`ll be the last to get there ;)

I love you all and remember onward ever onward and don`t give up this isn`t just your fight, i need you too!

Wanna hear something absolutely amazing Jenny? Our lives are so similar and yet so different right now. I've been trying to make changes too, and started reading the Book of Mormon again, and am trying to figure out where my life is headed. The advice every single person has been giving me, sometimes without even knowing it, is to read the scriptures. So that's what I'm doing and I'm glad you are too!!! Good luck and I love you! I'm so glad you are feeling better!

I'm so glad to hear that you are doing well and that things are going a lot better for you. I laughed out loud at your comment about the gringo elders. I hope not all things about you will change. As for me, by the time you get home my hair will be longer and I will be skinnier! Abbie and I are going to do a 6 week body makeover and don't you worry, I will be smokin' by the time I'm through! :)
