Mothers Day in the Philippines

Well today got to talk to the family-It was kind of wierd as i realized that i’ll call only two more times on my mission…its crazy how time goes by…we sang a hymn the other day that i thought the words were good so here they are:

Improve the shining moments; don’t let them pass you by

work while the sun is radiant; work for the night draws nigh

we cannot bid the sunbeams to lenghten out their stay

nor can we ask the shadow to ever stay away

time flies on wings of lightning; we cannot call it back

it comes, then passes forward along its onward track.

and if we are not mindful, the chance will fade away

for life is quick in passing. ’tis as a single day.

Its a good one-times important! We gotta take advantage of every day. Take care everyone, sorry this is a little short-take care everyone.
