A very important concept was impressed upon my mind in Aldo’s home evening last night. The lesson was on the necessity of opposition in all things, the point being made that unless we felt sadness we could never know happiness. Now I appreciate why I felt so lonely and so disanimated and so very low after Elder Blackham left. The reason was because for three or four weeks we had been so consistently high and animated and together. Never before have I felt so bad in my whole life as last week. But never had I felt so good than with those last precious weeks with Elder Blackham.
Elders Milton Brinton and Ronald Ferrin arrived today to spend two days with us. Following lunch (we ate at noon today), we held another leadership training session under Elder Ferrin’s direction. I worked in the afternoon with Elder Brinton and this evening with Elder Ferrin. Relief Society fell through on us this afternoon. We checked by Adolfina’s, and she had gone, but we missed her at the church. Tonight we visited Apolinário and Idelta. He has been pretty sick lately but was up tonight.
