Tithing for time

<p>Everyday I keep thinking back on my 2 years. It isn't funny at all how I depend on it. Those experiences that are specific to the mission you can't get anywhere else. Like spending tithing on the years you lived so far. You sacrifice your time, in return the Lord gives you an experience you'll never forget. </p>
<p>One time me and my companion were talking to an interested potential investigator. She wanted to know who we were. But in essence there was a deep question she had to ask. Our first meeting she cried. She said that she had committed adultery. She wanted to know if there was a chance for her to go back to heaven or is it just too late for her. At the time I felt strongly against anyone who committed adultery. Anyone who committed adultery deserved what they had coming to them. A small moment passed I felt no sympathy. But something that came to me that I felt was so simple yet pacified me and made me change my outlook. I felt Christ's love for her. I felt he didn't care much of what sin that she had done before. She is right in front of me crying with a broken heart. She doesn't want to do this sin again. I felt a flowing amount of love for her. How could God forsake his own child? With a loving heart that was flowing from me I said "No its never too late for you. You can always repent and come back to Heavenly Father." I felt that that was true. Jesus Christ had so much love for her it was insurmountable. After we left I felt that he loves each one of us that way. There's no sin that can keep us from him, as long as we repent. <br><br></p>

Understanding women..

Is like understanding the weather. Sometimes your spot on but it keeps you guessing. Sometimes for the worst. I'm just having difficulty just understanding my wife. I just wish God had a separate book on how to understand women. It would be easier for the men of the world while keeping women happy. I wish also girls had an indicator of what mood they're in right when they get in the room. Sometimes they're a ticking time bomb. If you think Hulk is mad try a woman in that time of the month in a good day. Hulk smash doesn't do much damage against womans bite. All in all I'm just at a loss of words on how to understand our sexy counterparts. But that's nothing new.

RM sanity :/

Well today went out with the Elders. First time I ever came back from the mission and went with the Elders. Feels weird. It's not the same as it was when you were the actual missionary in charge of YOUR area. One missionary has 5 months left. Oh the time passes by so fast. I feel sometimes a bit lost on what to do. I mean you constantly knew what to do from day to day when I was a missionary but when Your not and everything is all on you to decide for everything you tend to do things that you know is not important. I'm glad I bought a laptop the first day i came back from the mission since now im trying to keep myself busy with it. Even making this blog is helping me keep sane. Have to keep busy. That's all I'm doing to keep going. What about you?

So I made this intro to a story

It's called Assassins End. I'm still working out all the details in my head but this is for sure introduction for the series. ENJOY! :



"January 15, 925
This is the coldest night in the Tekana family. I don't know what to say. Nothing is right. Everything is wrong. What did they do to cause this to happen? They were peaceful people doing no wrong. I don't understand. What caused all this to happen. In their home?!
I went from my house to the Tekana's fair house. I wanted to see my sweet friend Ayumi like I always did every week. Then as I came to the door my heart suddenly came to the feeling of disgust and uneasiness. Something happened that I didn't understand at the time. Until I opened the door. I felt a coldness go through me as I reached for the door. As soon as the door opened I knew something was wrong as I saw inside. The lamps were dimmed and the house was dark. A few things were scattered as if there was a struggle of some kind. I didn't know what to think. I only felt fear for Ayumi and her husband. As I with a deep breath unsure whether I should continue on went through the halls very hesitantly. I saw as I went through the halls some cabinets and chests were opened in much disarray. Not all the cabinets were open and chest were open. The intruder stopped at some point. Then farther in the house the walls were sliced with a sword as it seems the intruder had been caught in the act at some point and swords were drawn from the intruder or Mr. Tekana-san is not sure. I then peered in their bedroom seeing if by any sheer hope of a chance no one was hurt. I saw Mr. Tekana-san laying on the floor lifeless on his side. As well as my Ayumi...facing toward him on the floor as well lifeless... They both were murdered!!! I collapsed and started to break down. “hmmm!!!” I heard a noise. I looked to the left of the room. It was a man wrapped around in a tourniquet cloth from head to toe with a red robe. He was the intruder. The ASSASSIN! He turned and noticed me. I was about to scream. As strange as his appearance he looked around as if he knew where everything was even with his eyes covered in bandage. He directed his head towards me as I was crawled back toward a wall in shock hoping he wouldn't hurt me he turned behind him making his decision whether to fight or flee. As he turned I saw behind him a child! Little Ayana!!! Ayumi's 5 year old daughter. I grew in more panic. His mission was solely to destroy the whole family!!! As I gathered the courage to fight for Ayana I stood up with tears in my eyes shaking and was about to charge. The assassin then looked to the open window and quickly jumped to the opening making it through. I then quickly ran toward Ayana embracing her and asked if she was ok. She didn't answer only having a blank look in her eyes. As streams still filled my eyes I then looked around if there was anymore trouble coming. I then picked up Ayana and fled away from the Tekana home. I went toward my fathers home and told him all that happened and being the royal blacksmith he assembled guards and went to the Tekana home with his company seeing if there was more danger. I couldn't stop hugging Ayana as I cried holding her for hours.
Why did this happen?

Critique is welcome.

Well I decided...

I'll use this blog only for progress on my writing. We'll see what happens but that's what this blog will be about.

A thought

I just saw this video which was epic about a boy whose only wish after having leukemia and being 11 years old and going through everything with cancer treatments his dying wish was to help others.



An 11 year old! He could've had any wish he wanted. He could've went to a theme park. Visit someone famous. Had anything he wanted. But instead he wanted to feed others. Help others less fortunate then himself. No wonder people are moved by him! Just a boy of 11 years old and yet he inspired thousands to bring a legacy of a cause to feed the homeless. Just something I thought for this Thanksgiving. We have a lot to be thankful for. Even though we don't have much we still have something worth holding on to. And that is something to be grateful.

r.i.p Brendan , may your example give light to people with how good it is to give.
