The title of this email is in response to Elder Rosenvall who expressed his disappointment my sparse emails recently. Also, I felt like you all deserved a more thought out email considering my recent ones have been a bit lacking. So, in honour of me only having five more of these to write, here is the book you've all been waiting for. This, my family and friends, is pontificating at it's finest. I've been thinking about structure. A good friend of mine, @David Petersen (by the way I had no clue you could tag people in emails, that's way cool), once showed me an object lesson I will never forget. Ask me to do it for you some day. It loses it's effect if not experienced in person. Anyways, the point of it was to remind us that all success in life comes from meeting expectations and those expectations are often set with a structure. As a volunteer for the church, right now, my life is extremely structured. Our feelings of success are resultant of meeting...
just kidding, kind of.
This week was a blur. We went to London and had interviews with our mission President. They were wonderful. I keep thinking about how much I've grown and how I have changed and thank the Lord for the miracles he has worked in my life as I've been serving Him.I don't really even have pictures from this week.But yeah things are good. Time is going swiftly. I have less than 6 months left. Here we go into the final stretch everyone.British word of the week: *see attached* this is one of the most British things I have ever seenBritish Food of the week: Costco here sells jacket potatoes alongside their pizza??Scripture of the Week: Ether 14:15Companion Comic: so you can tell I've matured a bit because when I knocked over a box of oats earlier, instead of immediately getting distraught, I just immediately flipped on the Hoover and in 30 seconds it was clean and I was on my way. It's the little things.Again, sorry if I haven't responded to your emails. I will soon. Love you loads and thanks for your support.Elder McKinley
