Hey family and Friends!!!
Due to the many requests about my knee, I just want to reassure everyone and let you all know that it is fine, and everything is back to normal. No problems whatsoever.
Well, Chile is getting COLD!!!! The Fall gave way to winter in like three days, and now this week we are excpecting our first heavy rainfall, which is supposed to last all week and turn the streets into rivers. But so far... its just been cold.
Well to be honest I dont have a whole lot of time to write, but I will put in the most important parts.
I have recently made a life changing decision that may affect the rest of my professional career. I was at Lunch with some members, and we were talking about the metro system and how it got started up and how they had to figure out a bunch of different problems and things of that nature. I was so interested in the conversation because I was trying to figure out the problems myself, and even though we never got to a solid conclusion, I realized something: I really like doing stuff like that! I enjoy learning about anatomy and how the body works, but it just isnt what I was meant to do. I was not meant to be in the medical field. So im saying goodbye to being a dentist/Orthodontist and doing.... well... Im still not exactly sure what it would be, but I have a feeling I will want to do whatever my dad did. Dad, Im not sure you realize just how big of an impact that you made on my life. You taught me how to think, and how to exercise moral responsibility in everything I do. I feel like a little kid in the winter going on a walk with his dad and trying to step in his footsteps. I know its safe, and I trust him enough to follow him wherever he goes. I feel more and more like that same relationship I have with my dad I am developing with my Heavenly Father. I know his footsteps are safe, and I am confident he will never lead me astray.
Im growing up guys! I think I really am becoming more of the man that I was supposed to become on this mission. I am learning responsibility and how to take care of myself (and yes mom, that means feeding myself). But you dont have to worry too much: Elder Wassom, someone who I am convinced was never a child, tells me everyday that although I am a twenty year old man, I have a 6 year old heart. Some things I dont think are ever going to change...
Thanks for your love and support guys! I love you!
Elder Westover
