Are close friendships with current Q15 important to getting a chance to have your Calling and Election Made Sure? What is the likelihood of such?
There is one SP who invited a different Q15 apostle recently and during that conference the SP with a glow told about his longtime close friendship with that apostle. It led me to consider that possibility, since Tom Phillip's I believe rose no higher than SP.
With one current Seventy (former MP) slated to speak at an upcoming conference alongside one of the higher-ranking Q15 guys (one a lot of you here love and adore ;) ) I'm now wondering the same thing about him. I would certainly congratulate him and his wife if they did receive it, he's a good guy and deserves it. But for now, without an actual answer, I'd like to know if it's likely he did; that being alongside such an apostle might be a clue.
ETA: I ALMOST FORGOT! I recently discovered a photo of him on his mission years ago with his companion. That companion is another current Q15 apostle (not the one he's appearing with).
Those of you who do go to this special conference, please let us know if he declares himself a BFF on the infamous apostle joining him when he speaks alongside him. I'd love to hear it.
My plan didn't work out.
I have taken some neon. I'm well aware of that is my worst problem. Few days ago when I came back from the village where I'm a teacher, I started walking west. I don't know why and I can't explain it, it is what neon does to you. It was like I was a robot and didn't even think about it.
I walked and my face turned pale. My heart flipped around. The wall. City was so much closer to my camp than I thought. I stepped slowly forward until my fingertips could feel the wall. I let my palm slip down. I sat down and wrote a song, the one I posted on my seventieth letter. Sometimes it feels like there is no in between. It is all or nothing. It is not one vial. It is thousand vials and ending up to city, ending up to graveyard. It is not one vial. It is not vial at all and being in Trench.
There's no place in between Trench and Dema in my mind. The problem is, that Trench is in between. And we are not meant to stay here, but we are not meant to go to city either. I don't know what is on the other side of Trench, but I know that to get there will be a long journey. Maybe I will never get there? And here we go again. It is all or nothing. I'm pulled closer to Dema again, because it is all or nothing. And I can't reach the other side of the world, I'm only in between, in Trench. So it is nothing, it is Dema.
Then it hit me. What makes me think that being in Trench is only in between? Trench is the best possible place for me now. I need to get further from the city. I'm in between, I need to make it through.
I want to start on Monday again. I know that I have said it many times and failed, but I will keep on trying. Sun will rise. Never stop trying frens.
My job has been fine. I feel like I have something productive to do in the middle of all this. I want to get that feeling on my meantime as well. I want to find things and projects that gives me satisfaction. I believe it will be creating. I'm wondering if I should start another TWOE. For those who doesn't know what it is, it means Three weeks of Emberism. I created that idea last summer to learn new routines to replace taking neon in. For three weeks I created something each day.
Maybe my next project will be TWOE 0.2. I will include goals I talked last week on it, but also add something. I will tell you about it later.
We will try again. I hope you all are willing to stay alive tonight. Sun will rise.

Seven months since our community hit the 60,000 mark, and here we are at 75,000! It's been great to watch this place expand with time, so let's hope that momentum keeps up with the impending release of The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles!
