The One Where I Done Finally Made Some Arts yee
Companion's Log
Stardate: April 20-26, 2020
It was a good week! Well it started that way at least, didn't get as lucky by the end but I still feel alright about it. I think the main thing that makes me feeling optimistic right now is knowing that I am learning and growing so much. And reminding myself when I'm not feeling the best that there is an opportunity to learn.
I've come to really appreciate quarantine. It's tough, some days are real rough, but I'm so grateful for all this extra time we have to finally practice talents and study. Before the missionary schedule was so packed and busy I never had much time to draw, and I had so much I wanted to study that I never got to with the one hour of personal study time. This week I was able to study my patriarchal blessing for almost 2 hours, it was amazing and I learned so much and felt so good and full of love for everyone around me. So I'm grateful for these opportunities.
I also got to paint this week!! I'm sorry, I know everyone is expecting some nice gospel art but...it's for dnd, but it made me so happy so here you go! It's been a long time since I felt this much joy and excitement for my art it really just boosted me up. Twas great!
So we played unstable unicorns with other missionaries a few times, had another Zoom mission conference, as usual been doing phone call and video lessons and contacting everyday. Towards the end of the week hit some stress again, idk it's all confusing as usual, you know me! Basically conflict super stresses me out and stuff, I still have a hard time trusting myself and finding stability. It's odd looking back to how amazing I felt at the the beginning of the week and how quickly that changed. But I know that it may be a slow process but I will learn and grow from this. Line upon line.
We had a lesson with a woman in one of our wards this week, we talked about Elder Stevenson's talk comparing the renovations to the Salt Lake Temple to strengthening our foundation. We asked her thoughts and she said it stood out to her that the renovations will take 4 years, "we are not short projects" and we can't rush the process, it's unrealistic to be impatient. As I should know because I'm slow and always spend forever on an art piece, but then there's usually a lot of extra time spent staring at the finished work. We are human, and we are imperfect, but we have eternal worth and when God created us He said "it is good"
Well that was all over the place lol
