It's amazing how fast time flies. I have never felt this way before. I feel like I don't have enough time in the day to do anything. This week has been really fun, Elder Garrett and I get along pretty well. We talk about our feelings and have "companion Inventory" all day long. We have funny conversations and when we need to be serious; we can be. When we teach, we teach as one. It's amazing how quick he learns. I'm amazed. He keep giving me compliments about being able to "command" the spirit. I think he's on drugs... But really, am I really "commanding" the spirit or am I just attentive? I think I just listen well.
Anyway, Mandy and AJ are still going strong on their baptism date. I'm so excited for her and her husband. They are amazing. I feel so bless to have the opportunity to share with them this Gospel. Oh I have to share something very personal to me. I did something that is pretty bad. I tricked Elder Garrett this week. I left him hanging at the door, because I thought it was funny. We went to Connie (Non-member friend that I met my first week here in Kokomo) and I acted like I don't know what was going on and I just let him choke there. I laughed my butt off and we smiled and laugh. However, when I got home I felt like I have done something really really wrong. I felt his feelings and thoughts... as weird as it sounds I was in tears... I failed as a trainer. I really couldn't explain it I felt so small that night so we ended up talking about it for the next 2 hours. I even called my district leader prior to our talk. I just didn't feel at peace. I feel like I have a better understanding of the Atonement ya know?
Well that was one of many instances that I have encountered spiritual experience. Well the downside of this week is that I got my bike stolen... They didn't even take the Helmet. I mean if they're going to steal it, mind as well steal the whole deal.. I thought I had to buy a new one but Mandy and AJ had 2 new bikes that they don't really use so they just gave them to us. They said that we're such a blessing to them so they want to do what they can to help us. It's brand new so we both got new bikes. We are TWINS now!
Elder Garrett is super cool, He's from Walla Walla and from what I have heard from him, his family is really cool as well. I have learned a lot from him to be honest. I'm blessed to be here. Thanks for making it possible! Take care and have a great week.
love,
Elder Uthaichai
A final aspect of the suffering the beginning of happiness.
