  This past transfer has been going by way fast Someone told me pretty early in my mission that there will come a day when you will feel confident in your skills as a missionary but then you will get a companion that will feel like he has to retrain you This is what this transfer has felt like My companion is really good and quite the skilled missionary, i am learning alot from him It was a little humbling at first but this is good  I always want to be the best at whatever im doing so this is a great way to help me realize i have a long way to go So now i can put my head down and go to work  Im still in staten island and it has been going great  Only problem is that it keeps snowing on us... today we had to dig out our car from 3 feet of snow  Not a lot of fun stories to put in this email because i have been really focusing on the work recently so yeah sorry im kind of boring  A smal spiritual thought  Last week i was reading a talk that my dad gave in...
