For the past couple of days I feel as though I am staring a bull in the eyes. As a missionary we spend two years away from movies, television, dating, family, friends, and other such interests and go out to a place that the Lord has asked us to go and spread his message and serve his children. Looking at two years at the beginning is a long time. I now have 4 months left as a full time missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I find myself asking this question, "Where did the last two years go?" So there is my bull, the end of the greatest two years I've ever had. I cherish each moment I have with all of the people I have met out here and all the friendships that I have gained. You all will never be forgotten. I love being a missionary and I will give it my hardest these last few months!
As I have pondered the beautiful moments I am reminded of this video. How many times do we forget the small things in life? We need to live each moment as if it could be a cherished memory for the ages. "For behold, this life is the time for men to prepare to met God; yea, behold the day of this life is the day for men to preform their labors." (Alma 34:32)
