What is up everyone?! Happy Monday! I am currently sitting trying to think of what I even did this week because I am horrible at taking pictures and we have been busy with life lately! I am currently loving life as a content creator, it has become one of my favorite finding tools and its cool to be able to develop new talents on a mission! This week I got a brand spanking new camera (I love you mom and dad) and its been awesome to take out everywhere! Might become a vlogger ??? Anyways let's get to the summary of fab stuff that happened this week!
☆ We popped off on tech work and finding people online! And taught soooo many English classes and got my Spanish critiqued in every class!! Wooohooo!
☆ met the cutest pigs ever in the world!
☆ last Monday I learned how to cut hair and found out you have to oil the blades #saladdressing4thewin
☆ filmed a video of me and some cutie bestie kids washing cars! It was a blast!
☆ invested in a sip n save which means pay $5 and get a "free" drink everyday for a month so I've been back to the powerade grind and never been happier
☆ went on exchanges with sis diether who only speaks English and it was kinda fun because it made me realize I can actually speak spanish because you're kinda forced to when your comp can't haha
☆ had a pizza party last pday and also got accused of being a felon by my housing coordinators, lol what a time
☆ had the best member dinner party bonanza with the elders, spaghetti and our best friend frankie!!
Which let me tell you about Frankie! He is such an amazing guy and so pure. He had a stroke and is also going through chemo right now and honestly just having a hard time. Because of his health problems he can't hold a job and he also doesn't have any family support. Everyone knows he doesn't have much but he is just so happy to be alive and grateful to God for every small thing he does have. He had us over for dinner yesterday and he made us spaghetti and was just so happy to have us. We come to find out Frankie had just been robbed of pretty much anything of value in his house and he still chose to use the last of the money he did have to feed us. It makes me cry just thinking about it. Life hasn't been great to him but he chooses to give thanks to God and serve others. He is truly such an amazing example.
We have all been blessed with so much and it really made me stop and think about that song, have I done any good!
Have I done any good in the world today?
Have I helped anyone in need?
Have I cheered up the sad and made someone feel glad?
If not, I have failed indeed.
Has anyone’s burden been lighter today
Because I was willing to share?
Have the sick and the weary been helped on their way?
When they needed my help was I there?
I invite you all, myself included, to really ponder these questions and think about how you can do better to do good in the world! We have been blessed with so much, and we have so much to give!
Love you all tons and tons! And as always, God loves you more!
