So I guess everyone wants to know more about Elder Carter. He's like six foot something and has the bully complex not too unlike others that I've met. What he thinks is harmless fun, I take as a preemptive strike. Course the football jock stereotype will always out power the nerd. He's from Arizona and has been out for four months. I think that's all I have to say about him.
Yesterday we had Zone Conference and I'm still trying to recover from it. It made me question a lot of things that I'm doing. I'm confused and I don't know what to do now other than follow my gut which is still telling me to do what I've already been doing. My Mission President started off by playing as "Elder Mediocre" and a lot of what he was doing hit home. Sad to say though that I have never been nor will I ever be mediocre. So what do I do? He then went into Matthew on hypocrisy and Nephi on murmuring. This confused me greatly because I don't believe and I've ever been hypocritical on anything on the mission. I've always done what I said I was going to do. It seemed to me like the hyporcrites were coming from the leadership. You know how power goes to your head? So, sad to say I'm not in the best of moods right now.
As far as the work goes, with two new stakes to cover, we're being hard pressed for time. Elder Mitchell doesn't care about the new areas because he'll be leaving the area in three weeks. I care but I'm being squeezed from every side with everything I have to deal with, which is a lot. I'm starting to strain and crack again and that's not good. It seems that the long awaited break that I've recieved with Elder Mitchell is over with no chance of recovery time.
But for good news, the mission is going to read the BoM starting on 16 Oct til 13 Dec. This'll be great. I'm really looking forward to it. I hope everyone is doing well. I can't wait to come back because it seems like whatever I'll be coming back to, there'll be chaos.
Take care
Elder Garcia
