Enjoy to the end.

Well, Dad it was fun to hear about your surfing adventures!!Sorry that you got hurt. We can become pro-surfers together when I get back which I feel will be WAY TOO SOON. Sounds like everyone had a blast this weekend together. CAmi is a stud and so is Sean and so is Kyle. GOsh we are such a lucky family. Probably cause we have the best parents ever or something like that!! But, really though I have a lot of time to think about all of the things the lord has blessed me with. And can I tell you I think he's decided to spoil me. I know I always say it but I don't think anyone could have a more perfect life. The Lord has blessed me with EVERYTHING and I count having goodly parents that have always sacrificed SO MUCH for me and always shown their love for me on top of teaching me about this great gospel on the top. I mean pro-surfer dad and gang banger saver mom. can we get any cooler??> Yes I know humility is something I am working on... don't worry!>> I have alot of things I have been studying lately that I wanted to share. (p.s. I have only once heard about Cami's scripture studies!)> First just how much my testimony and love for Preach my Gospel has grown SO MUCH. Before the mish it was hard for me to get into. But, its hard to hear apostle after apostle talk about his love and passion for the book and think that there is a little more to it. A week ago I had been thinking a lot about communication because although my companion and I communicate REALLY WELL (tender mercy) many of the other sisters dont and and it has really impeded their progression. I felt prompted to help them , so I came up with all these suggestions and ideas that I thought could really help the sisters in my zone. And presented them to my Bishop and I was chatized and I am so thankful for it. He lovingly told me that although my ideas sounded great that the lord has given us all the tools we need to really succeed in the work. And so I must look to PMG for the answers. The answer comp inventory. So if there is something that needs improving its how to hold a successful comp inventory not do all of my ideas no matter how great they may be. It was humbling and really hit home. That I was prompted but didn't turn to the lord to tell me how to help them. Since then PMG has come alive and is becoming just as precious as the scriptures in accomplishing this great work. I know that it can help anyone at any stage of their lives. Look to it for guidance!!> One really cool thing that I read was about likening the scriptures. To liken the scriptures is not only to apply them to your circumstances in theory, but to read them sincerely and with real intent. WHich means that you must have the intention and be willing to take action on the doctrine you read, to incorporate it into your daily life and as necessary repent. THis is active scripture study. If you are not learing something new that can really help you in your lives and then taking action on them. Changing for the better. THen I would encourage you to do so. Start now.> I love studying happiness. I gave a lesson on it on sunday. And I have decided that this is all the lord wants for us. SOunds obvious but think about it for real. How great is it!!! Its glorious everything we have that has come from god, the scriptures, the prophets the commandments prayer, families, EVERYTHING!! is so we can have joy in this life!!! and from my observations that is all anyone wants. TO be happy. THey all have different methods of trying to attain that happiness but I can testify that they will all fall short in the end because the only true happiness comes through the Atonement of Jesus Christ, the knowledge of his and GOds Love for us!! AND HE DOES LOVE US!!! I am so lucky to be here!!! THank you again for all the amazng support I get.> FUnny story... so remember how I am frriends with President CLegg, well he has taken to calling me the persian princess and he did so in front of my district and they haven't stopped making fun of me. Well for movie night on sunday he was getting things started and I was standing lost and confused in the ailse so he said in front of 4/5ths of the MTC come up here my persian princess! SO I went up to the pulpit bright red, and he asked me to pray, well now I am famous and everyone in the MTC comes up to me and asks if I am the persian princess, or sisters will come up to me and tell me that their elders will boast that they saw the persian princess. So yeah... good thing I leave in a week.> I love this work I get to be so perfectly me its incredible!!!> Love you all> Your Hermana Kimi
