Today was much easier than yesterday. Running in the morning truly helped. It gave me so much energy!

I love my mission. I love my companions. I hope that we can be able to start to act like friends, rather than awkward strangers. But I will pray for that and I have faith that the Lord will provide.

I wrote a talk today in Portuguese for this Sunday. It's about the restoration. I start with a scripture and then I give a quick testimony. I'm sure it's not the greatest, but still.

We had gym for the first time today and let me tell you, it is awesome! I love it! I ran 2 miles, plus lifted some weights. It was great.

I feel a little ostracized from the other elders. Like right now, I can hear elders outside my room having a jolly holiday and I'm wondering, "Why aren't they studying?" Why aren't they doing something productive?"



I feel out of place when I do not join them. I feel as if we should be studying and not playing. I don't mean to sound rude, but maybe it's because I am on "the high". I don't know. Whatever. I'll just be myself and do what I want with the little free time I have.

I pray that I will be able to learn this lingua (language). Eu cancao por espirito santo e bencao from Jesus Cristo.
