Well, take it all down, Christmas is over. As much as I love the holidays, they suck on a mission. People are with their families and loved ones. We're not. But, we actually had a lot better Christmas than I was expecting. I went to a member's home. They gave me a scarf because I told them I had never worn one before. We'll see how that goes when the winter really hits.
This week was pretty interesting. I had a really hard week, then I had a really good week. My mission president is an amazing man. I seriously want to be him in every possible way. Since I've been struggling with some things, he really has been a huge help and he claims I haven't been a pain but I think he's lying. Anyways, we had our quarterly interviews. We had a talk about some of my ups and downs, and he was helping me out. We had a big talk about my relationship with God and how I stand with him now, and stuff like that. But, he really helped me realize some things. His spirit is so strong, that it made me come to love the Atonement even more.
I can honestly say that I can never deny this church. Every fiber of my being knows the doctrine is correct and it's claims are true. Which leads me to my next topic of debate... If there are any non-members reading this, why haven't you joined the church? Seriously, there is no excuse. Missionaries have a gift: they can weasel around any excuse, doubt, or problem you have. But, I guess it's an individual choice, but that change is for the better.
Anyways, I've been eating a lot of pizza. I miss Time Out Pizza so much. When I get home, I'm eating it so quickly, furiously, and intimately as possible. Weird, I know.
With the sincerity,
Elder Damon Chlarson.
