So this week went a lot better. it started out really crazy though. so on Wednesday morning it was 9 30 and my companion was still sleeping. so i went into his room and told him he needed to get up and start getting ready. then he was like ya whatever leave me alone. so then i was like no i am sick of this we are always late we never go out to the sector. then he was like why are you being such a b----, what the f---- is your problem. and we just argued for a few minutes. he was cussing up a storm, he dropped the f bomb like 10 times. i was so mad we almost had a fist fight but we didnt. so then he got in the shower and got ready and ran out the door. so me and my other comp went to the office without him because we didnt know where he went. i was going to call the president and tell him i could not deal with this craziness, but he had a meeting until 5 so i had to wait for that. but he came in an hour later. so anyway we went to lunch that day. we were sitting there waiting for our food, and then he turned to me and was like ya i am really sorry your right we need to leave to the sector more, and then i apologized for kind of being a nag. so since then we have left for the sector everyday. we found this one cool family so we will have to see whats going to happen with them. but he has been a million times better this week since that incident. he is going to leave out of the office this week back in the field he still has a year, so hopefully he does good, we have been getting along a lot better since that. he is actually a good missionary, when we went out to do contacts he actually does them really good, and has a lot of potential. he is a good guy he still does some things he probably shouldnt do but he has changed so much this week, so anyone who prayed for me i thank you so much and know that Heavenly Father really did answer your prayers. My first week in the office i prayed really hard that this guy would be transfered and i wouldnt have to work with him, but after my prayer the thought came that he was one of the reasons that i was here. i am not trying to take credit for helping him change because really it was the Lord and his own decisions, but was a cool experience to be here and see it. so this week was a lot better. i have been reading a lot about nephi and how he always had such a great attitude. his life was so hard but he always saw the big picture. he always did what he should even when it was hard, or didnt have success right away. he never gave up and always had such a great positive attitude. like in nephi 18 11 his brothers tie him up because he was trying to help them keep the commandments, but instead of whining or complaining he just looked at the big picture. laman and lemuel had all the same experiences in the desert the difference between them is there attitude. the one complained the whole time and separated himself from God, while the other always had a great attitude and as a result from this experience grew and learned a ton. its the same with us when something hard comes up we can complain and say it is a hard thing thou hast asked of us, or i will go and do. so at least in the office i think i am starting to learn that lesson at least. so thanks for all your prayers and help. no really exciting stories, except there was this crazy guy who has the scariest eyes i have ever seen. he would just look at us on the bus and tell us to shut up in english even though we werent saying anything. he was so crazy. then he just kept staring and glaring at me, he was so crazy. so ya i think thats all. thanks for everything
