In Spanish you don't commonly say "I love you." Instead, it's literally translated "I want you." Part of being loved is knowing you belong and you're wanted.
I'm currently in a job where I feel wanted and loved, and I love and want this job. I'm working as the Global Outreach Assistant for Tenth. I get to be the liaison between the congregation and the workers. I get to talk about global outreach all the time. I get to work with people I respect and admire for their faith and work.
Of course, I'm ever the instigator because I'm always trying for a bigger emphasis on Spain and the Hispanic world. One of my coworkers joked that I should fly my three-foot Spain flag out my office window during GO Conference (our biggest annual Global Outreach event). I entertained the thought longer than I should've, but managed to sneak a Spain flag into a table arrangement at the dinner that served to cap the conference.
I recently found that we have a retired worker up near Barcelona, so I'm going to try to visit her when I get across the pond next.
Please continue to pray for Spain. ¡España, te quiero!
