When I left on my mission Ty had almost finished his. Before I left, he told me to print out Elder Holland's talk, take it with me, and pull it out on a particularly hard day. I think I only made it 8 weeks or so before pulling it out. And then I pulled it out a handful more times throughout the two years. Amazing how difficult some experiences can seem in real time, and then how reasonable they can seem in retrospect.
