👨‍💼😪🛫🛬🥳👪

Hi everyone! I've been sitting here thinking about what to write, but it's really hard. It's hard to sum up 2 years of a mission in an email. My mission means everything to me. Over these last 21 months I've learned and grown more than ever before. Very early on I was pushed over my limits. My limit of work I could handle, the emotions, the knowledge I needed but didn't have. It was all too much for me. And it was probably one of the first times in my life where I didn't feel like I could do things myself. But, when I was pushed to and past my limits I had no choice but to rely on God. As that has happened, so many things have changed and I have experienced for myself the power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and His grace. I could go on for awhile, but in short, my mission has changed me forever and I'm so grateful for that! The progression of my ramen mirrors the progression of myself throughout my mission. In my first area I just microwaved the ramen and ate it. In my second area I started adding in some frozen vegetables when I boiled the noodles. When I got to my third area, I started putting an egg in with my ramen. And since I've been here, we've started using the ramen to create a stir fry with fresh vegetables and some meat. I didn't plan it like that, but that's how it happened haha. I'm eternally grateful for the many blessings I have in my life. The people I've met on my mission, all of you back home and so many other things and so many great experiences. I know that God is our loving Heavenly Father. God is good and life is too! I Love you all! See ya soon! Love Elder Tait
