Dear
Mom and everyone,
Okay so I know that
that symbol isn't pi (it's actually some kind of Hebrew character), but it's
the closest thing I could find while searching for about 5+ minutes through the
character map. With my luck the real symbol for pi was probably one of the first
ones I scrolled through and I didn't see it, but oh well. Use your imagination.
Happy Pi Day! I think 3.1415926538 or something like that are the first few
digits, and that's embarrassing that I actually know that. I guess having a
semi-decent memory comes in handy sometimes, and that used to be on a wall in
one of my teachers' classrooms. I wish my memory would help me remember
everything that happened this week though! As usual, I'm drawing a blank. I'll
start off with the biggest news. Someone who has been meeting with missionaries
for over a year will be getting baptized on March 26th! The whole experience was quite remarkable actually and a
privilege to be able to be there and be an instrument in the Lord's hands, but
I'll simply say that Heavenly Father is willing to help us when we don't know
what to do, especially when we are trying to help His children, and He will
inspire us through the Holy Spirit to know what to say and what to do.
Direction from Him is not always so specific and so direct, but He with His
infinite knowledge and wisdom knows what is best for us and what kind of help
to offer in each individual situation. Regardless of how He chooses to
intervene and respond though, His love and awareness of each one of us is
constant. Don't forget that!
Other than that cool
miracle last Monday, the rest of the week was pretty normal as far as
missionary work goes. It rained for a week straight and that wasn't super fun,
but it sure helped me appreciate the sunlight and made me almost giddy this
morning when I woke up and realized that it had finally stopped! I hope you are
all having a great week and don't forget to smile! Or you can try this
experiment. Try saying something negative in that high-pitched, obnoxiously
cheerful and squeaky voice (like the one that Barbie uses or those recordings
that come on the phone while you're on hold). It doesn't work very well (but
it's pretty funny for the people around you if you're in public). Well, with
that, I hope you all have a great week! Stay on the sunny side!
