I Love to See the Temple

Hey y'all. How is everyone? Good I hope! I gotta say, this week was one for the books. Why? Because I got to go to the temple for the first time in over 7 months!!! Holy, am I grateful! There's a certain spirit in the temple that cannot be found anywhere else. All of the trainers went to Zoetermeer for a training while our trainees did some legal work, and afterwords we all got to go together to the temple. Twas super cool to do a session in Dutch. And I got to see my trainer when I was coming out of the temple (she's serving in Zotermeer) so that was super stellar!

Other than that, not a whole ton happened except for many nights spent in Eindhoven with our STLs because we live so far away from everything, haha. Takes a long time to get to and from places... But they're amazing and I love that they're so kind and willing to have us crash.

Spiritual thought: I was reading a talk by President Nelson the other day and he talked about how we can experience true joy in this life. Because that's exactly why we're here right? What he said really stood out to me, "...the joy we feel has little to do with the circumstances of our lives and everything to do with the focus of our lives." Unfortunately, I've turned into a little bit of a complainer... Big wake up call when I realized that maybe I'd feel a bit better if I tried to focus on the good instead of the bad. Maybe I have a hard time with some things, but there's so much more that I've been blessed with that outweighs all the negative!! No matter what we're going through, we will always feel joy when we choose to focus on what brings us joy. Love you all super tons and hope you have a great week!
Love,
