So by reading the title you can probably guess what happened this week. That's right my day of birth was Friday. Thanks to all those who wished me Happy Birthday. Don't worry momma the members treated me like their own son here. The members bought cakes and made yummy meals #BLESSED But yeah I'm no longer a teenager.... Does that mean you could say I'm a man? ;)
Wednesday morning we had a service project as a district. We chopped weeds that were almost as tall as me.... They had gone a good amount of time without a good ole trim. But as we were chopping away we came across a bees nest. We needed to cut where they had made there little nest (about the size of a tennis ball). A guy that was working nearby came and showed us how to get rid of it which is cut the branch and then freeze. Those bees were swarming like crazy bit we all froze and sure enough they calmed down and we got back to work. Well a little bit later I'm chopping away like a machine and all of a sudden I feel like someone stabbed a needle on my head where the top of my ear connects to my head..... Sure enough one of those suckers had planted a good one on my ear. Boy did that hurt!! Long story short it got me good enough and now I've got some dope lines growing on my face but don't worry I've been I'm contact with the mission nurse and things are getting take care of.
Other than that it's been a calm week. The sun is baking us faster than a batch of cookies. We also are having problems finding new people to teach. My comp and I are planning on changing things around because we've been struggling for about a month now. Simple as that: if it's not working, FIX IT!
My mom shared a quote with me last week that I'd like to share because it made me stop and think and it actually helped a lot! "Do not allow negative thoughts to enter your mind for they are weeds that strangle the confidence" -Bruce Lee. When we stay positive we allow ourselves to have confidence which leads to success. Don't get your hopes up. Stay positive and put your trust in Him and everything will fall into place.
