Well it's been, what, a month? It's probably time for another post...
A few really great things have happened in this past month. Let's do some re-cap. I got a calling in my church ward. I am a co-coordinator for Family Home Evening. Incase you don't know, Family Home Evening is an activity held weekly as a way to keep families or loved ones involved in each other's lives. Sometimes a religious lesson is prepared, but it's really just a way to get together during the week. So, my calling is to organize the activities that happen weekly. It's a fairly big responsibility, but I have done it before and I am excited to stay connected with the ward that I am in.
The other thing that has happened is that I started a new job this week. I work at the Testing Center at UVU. I love it. I think it's such a great opportunity for me. It'll give me an opportunity to improve and be more responsible. I need that!
There isn't anything else to add, re-cap/events-wise. I have learned a lot about myself and how I need to structure my life. I am trying to learn how to be successful, which seemed really easy at first. As a missionary it was so easy to follow the schedule..or at least understand why I needed to. After I got it down, it was easy...I guess I kind of just solved my own dilemma: things take time. But I thought that because I already learned how to manage my time and plan out my days on the mission that it would be just as simple once I got home. It isn't. It's still a process. I'm willing to learn though and I guess that's really all that matters. I just need to keep trying.
When it comes down to it, life is really just one day on repeat. Maybe things change, new things come into play, other things leave. It just keeps going: wake up, pray, eat, work, study, friends, get ready for bed, pray, sleep, repeat. So if that's all it really is, why isn't planning it out easier?
I don't know. I guess I don't have any great revelation to share this time. I wish I did, because then I could give that same advice to myself ha! Oh well, life is a process. It's about learning and improving and to giving up. If I can just keep on, each day, I should be fine, right?
