Hey David -
Here's another family letter.
hey buddy!!! This is your favorite sister Sherie I miss you buddy!!! How are you? (good) How is life as a missionary? (been good, been not so good, things kind of slow lately.... previously set baptismal goals fell through, taxes making it very hard to meet with people and all the sports stuff and other things making everyone very very very very very busy, so what can I say, it's the missionary life during tax and early spring sports season..he-he-he-he) Keith and I are having a stroke of awesome luck lately....(ahuh.) Seems like everything that can go wrong has gone wrong....(doooohhh!!!!! Murphy strikes again!!!) Oh well we love and miss you and are sending you warm and good thoughts your way!!(I would apreciate that)
Hi there, so just wanting to let you all know up front, I am getting transferred today. yep after 5 months of working here, I am getting the boot. yea it's kind of depressing, and something funny about it - when I left my last area I was alright. I mean I wanted to stay and felt like there were things I hadn't finished and so on but it was not all that hard to deal with. But this time for some reason it wasn't as much a feeling of leaving things uncompleted or things along those lines, more like I was leaving something behind, like when you are in a place for a while and somehow, without even realizing it, you have become attached to something or someone or the place(or ward) in general, and you don't even notice until the time comes and you have to go, and discover just how much you want to stay and the realization comes that you have become attached and it hurts to walk away and leave what has become a part of you behind. But even with the departure immanent, and the pain of the separation, you can still walk away knowing that you will not forget what happened or the people you already miss. They are still there and will not forget you either, and through the gospel of Jesus Christ those connections, friendships, and things you cherish will be restored to you if you remain faithful and live your life to eventually gain that dream. No matter how many times we trip or how many times we fail, if we are still trying then that will be enough. Sorry I seemed to carry on there didn't I?, anyway gotta hurry now, love you all very much and I will write you next week.
LATER;-}
