A few days ago i was thinking about all that we will take with us when we leave and as I pondered it came to me that its nothing... only those we love and the knowledge we have recieved.  As I started to think about how my mission started and all the experiences that I have been through it only testifies to me that much more that there is a God, that he knows me, and even more that he loves me more then I will ever understand.  He truly has become the only one I want to make happy and the only one I will ever want to serve.  I've had so many experiences with the Holy Ghost that have brought the greatest joy.  Ive learned how to follow, when to lead, when to shut up... lol, and when to talk.  Its awesome to know that I am truly being guided by my Father in Heaven.  One experience really awesome is when we were talking with a guy that has pretty much lost all that he had.  He has been through a hard addiction and he left all he had for it.  As we talked the spirit couldn't be any stronger as we told him the blessings and in the end my comp. gave a promise to him that if he returned with God he would recieve all that was lost.  I thought that was a huge promise... however in that exact moment the spirit filled the room testifying that it would happen.  knowing he feeling that too he told us I would give up all that he had to follow.  It was something right out of the scriptures!  lol  His progress has been amazing and he is completely changing his life.  I have decided to put a goal and to follow the spirit 100 % because I feel like I am but not 100.  I read yesterday how Christ wants to live within us and be one like he is one with God!  Its been an interesting change and journey.  I've seen a huge change not only in the work but also in myself... becoming more like Christ :) YES!  lol  The work is easier and its brought even more joy!  sorry i wasnt able to answer the stuff but i didnt really have too much time!  Im glad to hear all is going well and maybe a call on fathers day will come... i will ask... lol  but I Love you all so much and hope the best!
