Our ward mission leader wants us to think about this question for our investigators so we can help them out. Konbanwa, Kazoku! Whazzup? Doing some sweet chillin' in kunitach'. Sweet stuff. It hasn't been amazingly long since the last time I e-mailed because of thanksgiving, but I still do have a couple of questions to answer this week! Have my masterful patience skills disappeared since coming on my mission? What's my secret? As I may have mentioned, I have gone somewhat insane since coming on my mission, but I don't think my patience skills have been too badly affected. The secret is to not rely on someone else's happiness to be happy yourself. That helps with EVERYTHING. The only person's opinion that matters is God's. No one else's. As cool as your family is and your future spouse and kids and all that, and as important as it is to keep them happy and to keep a good example for them, if you are keeping God happy everyone else should be too. If not, that's their problem, not yours. What can you do for me? Keep being awesome. That would be chill. How often do we 1)eat at restaurants, 2)buy chocolate, 3)eat cereal, 4)cook your own food, 5)cry, 6)fall asleep in study time and 7)find cool crazy people? Lets just put this on a scale from one to ten on each, ne? 1 being never and 10 being every single time you possibly could. 1)3, 2)4, 3)2, 4)8, 5)1, 6)1 and 7)7 But yeah, good shtufts. Elder Hoopes, Sawyer, and I are going to be remaking some Christmas songs, at least one anyways, into zombie version for kicks and giggles, so I may possibly send it through e-mail when it is done, if it is small enough that is. Random Story Time! So we had had a kind of a bummer dendo(proselyting) day and we were way bummed, so we grabbed some TimTams from our local Seiyu, or Japanese WalMart, did some TimTam-slams, then set out revitalized to go baptize some people! We were way into it and way energetic and started doing way good at just making people smile and laugh at us, which only energized us more, so, ignoring the fact that we had yet not stopped a single person and only had about an hour before we had to head back, we continued on to get more success and help more people. By the end of the night we had gained 3 potential investigators and talked to a ton of other people and it was awesome! But the effects of our faith that night didn't end there! We also had a random person show up to our Sunday-morning English class who ended up staying for all 3 hours of church, a 20 minute lesson afterwards and became a new investigator! The power of faith and TimTam-slams! Awesome shtufts. Anyways, Loves to all you awesome people! Younger Elder Brooksby
