Lane Shimai there is poop on the stairs...can we take the elevator?

Great week.

Well! You know what we did all week! Housing :) My companion likes elevators right? but we always take the stairs. So. We were about to go to the stairs- and she just every so sweetly says "Lane shimai, there is poop on the stairs, can we take the elevator?" haha I don't know why but I thought it was the funniest thing in the world.

Well goodness! This week was amazing. I got a project for you all to do.

Read these talks--
President Monson (his talk about love from last general conference)
Elder Eyring--his talk from a while back that has the quote "I gave him to you because I knew you would love him"
Elder Eyring--(his talk from last conference--the general womens broadcast)

And then ponder about these things:
What do people need to live emotionally, physically, spiritually?
What exactly does it mean that God is "all-knowing"?
What lessons do you think you may have learned in Heaven before coming down to earth?
What questions would you have asked Heavenly Father before coming down to earth?
What is the purpose of our life on earth?
Why do some people have plenty of food, people who love them, everything they would ever want and need while others are suffering in every way?
Why did I come to earth at this time, with my specific family, in this situation?
What lessons do I think Heavenly Father wants me to learn here?
What is my ultimate goal in the eternal scheme of things?
How does Heavenly Father help me?
How does our life effect the lives of our ancestors, and how do their lives affect ours?
What things did we get to bring with us from Heaven when we came to earth?
After we die, when we see Christ again, what questions will He ask us?

Write it all down. Its amazing! I had the greatest personal study yesterday- and I was going to write down everything I learned, everything I think--but instead I want you all to just have the same kind of experience. It is a lot to think about-it might take a week to go through-but try it! And then tell me everything you think! I would love to hear it!

kaishudan is going great.

Aiko is the best.

Yuu chan is going to come back a visit soon :)

Yukari is so cool.

The Book of Mormon is so powerful.

Heavenly Father loves you!

The rain is getting cRaZy awesome. Thunder and lightening galore. 

I love this gospel! 

I am the luckiest person in the world.

I love you all so much!

Have an amazing week! See miracles! Ask questions! Smmmmiiiiiillllllllle.

looooove,
Lane Shimai
