The Way to Conway

So on Tuesday we found out where we were going for transfers! Now get
this I am now Serving in Conway! Which is only 10 minutes from my last
area! But it's in another zone! But that's not all the orlando stake
which is where I previously served and the Orlando South stake which I
am in now came together to make a third stake! So I am back in the
Orlando stake! Neighboring UPK! So ya it has been crazy! My companion,
Elder Lefholz is awesome! It hasn't even been a week and we are
teaching in unity! We got two baptismal dates! Whoo! Conway is like
UPK just more Ghetto! Lots of good people though. We are teaching a
guy who is really nice... But for all of you who have seen Modern
Family, he reminds a lot of Cam! It is really funny. He is a good guy.

It is incredible what blessing you see when you have a positive
outlook on life! When we expect good we see good. When we expect bad
we see bad. Imagine starting the day and getting to choose if you
would see or not. Sure you wouldn't see anything bad but imagine what
beautiful things you might miss because you chose to blind yourselves.
The same process goes for our perspective, we wake up each day and
decide if we are going to see the blessings of our Heavenly Father our
not. Only with an open mind and open heart will we be able to see his
goodness. Not with a skeptical or cynical mind. Sure trials will come
but if we see the light at the end of the tunnel instead of focusing
on the darkness behind us we will be lead by His light!

I have chosen to have a positive outlook on everything! Doesn't mean
it won't get hard but I know it will be worth it! I hope you all are
doing well and in all things look to Heavenly Father!
