I think I need to dedicate this weeks email to expressing my love for my family.
I don´t know how an email can really suffice for my feelings, but I need to try.
My family and I... we´ve been through a lot. Not more than any other family and not less... but a lot.
And it´s easy to look back at the hard times and complain.
It´s easy to look back at the hurtful times and cry.
But it´s the most beautiful and releaving feeling in the world to know that they are still here.
My family is not perfect. And a lot of that accounts to us being human.
I am so far from perfect it´s a little bit hysterical which is perfect because it brings humor to the trials.
My family has not always been the most faithful. Or patient. Or kind. Or productive.
But my family almost always will learn from the mistakes.
My family together can sometimes be a wreck, an adventure, and every other adjective you can think of.
My family... sometimes we feel lost.
But only when we´re apart.
Because when we´re together we´re found. Even on the most tiring of days.
My dad is the ship. My mom is the sail. And God is the wind.
The personalities on board are a little harder to explain.
The gospel of Jesus Christ changes lives. It has change my family.
And I will never give that up for anything.
They are my anchor. They are my home. They are my eternity.
And this is why I´m serving a mission.
