Hey!
This week was pretty great. I was having some troubles in
the beginning of the week but my District Leader, Elder Zimmerman, gave a
great message that really helped me out a lot. It was a good lesson.
Grandma Lucille has had to put up with so much. She is awesome. She
is consistently always the same lively, energetic person whatever is
happening to her in her life. And that is awesome. And it sounds like
you guys had a lot of fun while you were there with her in Utah as well!
That would have been fun but I will see her soon enough.
Something crazy that I have realized, but not really let affect me,
is that I am going home really soon. I have tried not to let it get to
me. But I am going home in September. That is extremely close. I had
just gotten used to burying my head in the sand when it comes to how
much time that I have left and also about the entire world around me but
now it is pretty hard to ignore. I only have 2 changes left and I am
walking in the house. That is crazy to me. That is not any time at all,
on the 8th (I don´t know what day that would be) I complete 22 months
(or maybe 21 because I lost track) on my mission. That is crazy. But it
is also good I suppose. I am not getting trunky though. So don´t anyone
tell me to stop being trunky (we call it baggy over here) because I am
for sure not baggy. You can notice how much time you have on your
mission without getting baggy. Or at least I can. It is just interesting
how quickly the time has passed.
And
about the thing that you mentioned in your letter, you are right. Last
week, I was being very prideful. But this week I feel like God kind of
put me in my place and humbled me up a little bit through the
scriptures, the Liahonas, and an inspired District Leader. It is just
too bad that I wasted so much time and energy being hurt and upset and
frustrated about something that was God´s will. That was my bad and I
hope that I never do that again.
It is too late to sign up for classes now and try to scramble for
that (if BYU would even allow me to change my return semester) and I
think that I would rather serve a full full-time mission than an almost
full full-time mission. So I will just come home at the regular time in
September.
Thanks for everything, Mom. You are amazing.
Love,
Elder Froelich
