My assignment, and I chose to accept it: Find someone more stressed than you are, and then do something nice for them.
In the beginning (of last week), there was no man, woman, or child more stressed than Robert Boyd Craig. So when Shayne gave me this assignment I thought it may be impossible to complete. Then came Saturday night and I heard Elder David A. Bednar give a fireside, where he answered questions for 2 hours. This completely relieved my stress and made me realize that all was well.
So this very night of December 5 I found a beautiful princess who happened to be more stressed than I was. Barely. She was a 4 on a standard 1 - 10 stress scale. And I took this damsel in distress to Salem Pond, that may or may not be the pond from the book entitled "The Salem Witch Pond" and had a great time with her there. It helped me relax before the stressful weeks of school that lay ahead, and hopefully it helped her too.
And I might not have been thinking about this assignment when I asked her to go with me.
