Thursday

I got here at 8:30 today and I didn't take lunch because I GOT HERE AT 8:30 and I've been leaving work early EVERY Monday and Wednesday since August when I started taking these Real Estate classes. I am grateful my boss let me do that. Despite this I'm not going to take advantage of that. I enjoy so many blessings.

This morning when I left my apartment there was a card and cookies from someone at my door. They spelled my name correctly which is ALWAYS nice. It just said I'm great and that they wanted me to have something sweet. Very thoughtful, unexpected and kind. It is definitely from some girl. the card was too cutesy and the handwriting is too. Jonni and Julie brought me flowers once as did Sara when she was our RS president. Becca left all this Valentines Day stuff at my door once too. I'm not sure if people think I just need extra friendshipping or what. It was kind however it is strange people keep doing little things like that for me when they're not my visiting teachers. This time it was anonymous. A friendly stalker? My female friends tend to get clingy with me and then I just avoid them.

I like Adam the gay guy in my Real Estate class. He's not LDS and the gay thing would prevent me from falling for him at all. It would probably be a waste of time however since I should be spending my time getting to know nice men I can possibly build a future with. My friend has made no attempt whatsoever to contact me and while I know what the spirit STILL tells me, I'm not supposed to OR actually I'm not going to sit around twiddling my thumbs waiting for something to MAYBE happen with someone I may NEVER see again. I haven't prayed about being Adam's friend. I see no way to help ANYONE gay want to even consider the gospel AND since he's originally from Utah, I'm sure there are lots of opportunities he's had to learn more. I have so many gay friends who are RMs. I don't have anything to say to them to make them feel better. He is going to be a real estate colleague so that professional relationship is actually a good thing.

Mosiah 1
I say unto you, my sons, awere it not for these things, which have been kept and bpreserved by the hand of God, that we mightcread and understand of his dmysteries, and have hisecommandments always before our eyes, that even our fathers would have dwindled in unbelief, and we should have been like unto our brethren, the Lamanites, who know nothing concerning these things, or even do not believe them when they are taught them, because of the ftraditions of their fathers, which are not correct.

Records are critical to preserving knowledge of both culture and God.
