Miscellaneous in May

Missionary appetite

If only medical concerns were
 always this small.
 They go from sprains,
to strep to mono to hospitalization.

No trespassing, no swimming
But why then were there swimmers?
Obedience is constantly our quest.

*President having moment alone or rather another moment on the phone

Always available by phone

A slice of May.
* Hungry and tacos appreciative zone leaders attending zone leaders council.
*The constant need for correcting and urging obedience and self discipline.  The sign and the disobedience so telling.
*Taking an hour for walks
*Snapping photos from the car as we travel--we travel distances in this rather large mission.
*Finding humor and interest in small and simple things

Happiness is like a butterfly: the more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder.
