Copy and Paste
So, I write posts on my Facebook account that I would like to post here, but you have to retype it instead of copy/pasting it. I suppose that I will have to type it here first and then copy/paste it to facebook.

Just a fun little lunch
So I was able to go have lunch with a girl I dated before my mission. I was wondering how this would go, because I really liked her, but now she is dating someone else, and said that she's going to marry him in the summer break. I am really happy for her, and I have a lot of really good memories with her, and I didn't want to ruin any of that with an awkward lunch, or a fight or something. I believe that awkwardness and bad feelings can be avoided or at least reduced in nearly every case, however, this was the test of that believe that I hold. I am pleased to say that I was supported in my theory by this event. It was pretty fun, almost as if we hadn't had nearly three years of not seeing each other. And she is just as smart, fun and pretty as she ever was. Which is good, because it re-affirms myself that I have pretty good taste, and am able to attract a pretty good catch. So it will happen again, I will find a girl who is amazing and then we will fall in love, but this time we will get married and have a family, and my children will be blessed because I picked a great mom for them. They really only have to worry about me.

I figured it was time to post something to this.
So I just came back from my mission a few weeks ago. I served in the Salt Lake City South mission of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I loved being there and teaching people about the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I know that he lived, and lives to guide us back to our Father in Heaven, that He lived a perfect life to be the example for us, to give his life to pay for our sins. I know that He restored His Church and Priesthood to the Earth and that He did it through the Prophet Joseph Smith. I also know that Thomas S. Monson is God's living Prophet on the earth today. I know this, because I have had the special witness from the Holy Ghost that it is true. And I know that God will grant to those that ask in faith, the witness that they need to know this also.
I am back at BYU now, yesterday was a historic event. Cardinal Francis George gave an address at the university forum that was amazing. I will have to write my thoughts on it in a future post. I was so excited when I found out that he was comming, and he did not disappoint my excitment. However, I came down with the flu yesterday and am still recovering, and I want to have my full faculties went I write my post on him and his address.
Another effect of my illness was I had to cancel a date I had set up. Most unforunate. She was cute. But I learned a lot about her charactor yesterday. I called her up to cancel the date and she took care of me, drove me home from campus and gave me some soup and sat and talked with me for a bit. I was amazed. I canceled our first date and she was so compassionate. It would be different if we were going steady, then that would be more expected. But I had barely met her on Saturday, ran into her on Sunday and then she was being my own Florence Nightengale on Tuesday. I found out right then that that kind of kindness was what I want my wife to have.
I should probably do a post on the charactoristics that I would like my spouse to have. I will add that to the list of topics.
