okies i'm pretty much just writing ablog cuz everyone will get mad if i don't, even though i don't have a whole lot to say
Well crazy things are happening in this world and Iceland seems to be some sort of microcosm for it. People loosing their heads, jobs, SUVs, flat screens and who knows what else. I find myself actually prospering, being able to save more money, living a comfortable life, financial security and all that jazz.
I feel like the difference is that i have the gospel in my life, a real foundation and not the airy support of the world, I'm emensely grateful for it, for the forsight i have gained since i was a kid to have food storage, and for the knowledge that if you don't waste what you recieve you wont be in need. I'm grateful for the principle of tithing, to regularly and willingly give of what you have is a great excersise in not-of-the-worldness. I'm glad I know who I really rely on.
It's going to be okay, I know it
I like my job I like interacting with people and observing how they react to each other, i love the old people who are regulars and ask me what the weather's like in Australia, and the other old people who say a*********s because everything is "so expensive" they make me giggle. I love seeing people I know and having a little chat, and the Koyle's, they are the new mission couple in charge of the YSA they are quite new and need a little help with shopping sometimes :D
I love my life I miss everyone though, but there's not a whole lot i can do about that :/
Anyways so there you have it and i'm way excited for this year! it's gonna be great!
