Nov. 20: Today was a very very very long day. We drove for fourteen hours from Utah to California. I was in the car with myself and three other boys. This got old and annoying very quickly. I didn't know how I was going to last fourteen hours straight in the car with them. I prayed and prayed that I would have the patience to ride with them, and that I would last the whole car ride without exploding.
It was humbling to me to keep quiet and not be impatient with the guys in the car, my brother. The car ride didn't feel any shorter, but somehow I was able to keep my cool the entire ride home. I was honoring my integrity by being respectful to others even if they weren't being respectful to me, and for letting go of my pride.
