I'm grateful to everyone who sent me their stories and such about their first weeks, it was nice to see that pretty much everyone goes through what I am going through. I want everyone to know that their support is very much appreciated and that their prayers must be working, because this week was much easier on me. Thinking about Lehi's vision the other day, I had an interesting thought: am I on the straight and narrow path, clinging to the iron rod and going through the mists of darkness? Maybe not. I think I--we--are at the tree of life, partaking of the fruit. The world is shouting harsh and slanderous things at us from a great and spacious building. I might feel slightly ashamed, but I must stay with the tree, partake of the fruit, and call out to others to come and also partake. That's my thought. What do you think?
Also, opinion poll: which was better, the Sam Raimi Spiderman movies or Homecoming? I want everyone's opinion!...everyone who counts.
Today I think we're gonna go see a castle. I can't remember what it's called, but apparently some of the movie Braveheart was filmed there. So that'll be cool. I'll send some pictures.
I'll give you some names that I'd permit for a family horse:
- Blacky (but only if you said it like Maddy Ross)
- Li'l Bandit
- Bart
- Doc
- Tuco (Puente)
- Cody (but only if I die on my mission by the hand of a crazy born again fanatic)
- or Elder Christiansen (because he looks like a horse)
Which girls ask about me? No, don't answer that.
No, do. Just keep it short. Not that that will be difficult. HAH!
Love y'all!
