Can't complain too much about my Sunday. It went pretty much that way that I wanted it to go. I even had time to take a nap and I got most of my home teaching done and I enjoyed teaching my lesson in High Priests Quorum. But that brings to mind something that I have noticed over the last several months about my teaching. I have done it for a long, long time. It even goes way back past my memory, but most of the years that I do remember were with the High Priests, and it has always been something that was really important to me. For years I fretted over it and it was the cause of some neat highs, as well as some lows when I fretted enough to make myself sick. This last stint has been different. I can't really explain how it is different, but I feel more detached from it in one way and more involved in it in another way. I worry about how it is perceived and yet I figure that I don't have to please anyone but myself. I hope that 'they' learn something, but I find that I am learning from the experience more then ever before and I am learning to make that my criteria. It is such a personal thing because of the way I put myself into every lesson, and yet that detached thing that I wrote is there too. It seems to be like my whole life is becoming now: a quandary, a big question, a mystery. The more I learn the more I know that I don't know--like I'm a very smart dummy. It is a weird thing that seems to be happening to me as I sit and watch my life go on before my eyes, not as much as something that I do, but as something that I see. Am I crazy?
