I have a cold STILL and it is super lame. so the mission nurse told me to
take 2g of vitamin c every day,and they are these dissolve-in-water tablets that
taste super nasty. eurgh. and the other thing is like a tylenol cold pill, which
isn't bad.
I'm going to go donate blood tomorrow for the sick mother of one of our
investigators. (she has cancer and is like 89 or something, not super unexpected
or anything) It's actually a very common thing to do in the mission, because
there are big blood shortages here.
hmm, what else? Oh yeah. there a bakeries everywhere here, that are super
cheap, and they sell delicious baked goods, and I purchase them frequently for
breakfast and supper, and it makes me fat. ah well. delicious.
Additionally, 9 days until the world cup. Aw yeah.
However Argentina an Brasil will not play each-other unless both make it
either to the final, which is unlikely. But that would be a game to see. (Brasil
would crush Argentina, Messi is good and all, but he doesn't have his team to
back him up is what everyone says)
On a more spiritual note, over the past three days, I read the entire
gospel of John, and was impressed by the number of times the word love occurs,
especially in reference to Christ. While many of his teachings,such as the
sermon on the mount and all of his parables are missing from john's account of
his life and ministry, the gospel of john does an excellent job of illustrating
who each of Christ's actions where motivated by the love he has for all
men.
I was particularly impressed by chapter 15, which
is an account of certain things Jesus said to his disciples at the last
supper.
anyhow, that's about all I had to talk about today.
Hope everyone has a good week,
and listens to lots of smooth, smooth jazz,
El. Backstrom
