Indebted

Today I was on my way to work and suddenly started thinking of my mission.
I turned off the radio and started to do my "thinking in circles". I know this is weird, but whenever I can't sleep, and I have the "niggies" like crazy, I close my eyes and start at the MTC and then circle around through all the areas I served in on my mission to Taiwan, ending at the airport coming home. Memories lead from one experience to the next, and pretty soon, I am relaxed and ready to sleep.
Today, I just did it on the way to work because I was feeling so touched and tendered as I started to think of my blessings...and all the blessings that have come into my life because of my mission.
Tonight in my gospel study, I read this phrase...
Those that, "realize and know from whence their blessings come" (Mormon 5:10).
The blessing of my missionary service came straight from the arms of God. I am so grateful,
Indebted.

Hmm....I just love these postings. I love to hear what you do in the times we are both doing our own thing and trying to live life. You are always such a deep thinker. Love it!
