10:40PM – The Honbu (mission home) called. I’m off to Ichinomiya to find my eternal friends there. It’s bittersweet to transfer. My last day with Nakata Choro was good. i still need to leave him though, because I receive this random happiness occasionally. I’m glad I got it today. So that’s the sweet part. Bitter – I don’t want to leave Kureha. I was able to see Nakamori, Matsui Kyoudai, Nakahira san/Satoko Chan. Leaving is terrible. Matsui Kyouday didn’t want to let go when we shook. He doesn’t want me to leave. I’ve only been here 3 months. We helped the other Elders teach Nakamori. It went well. Testimonies were great. My last visit was over to Nakahira. He is depressed. Out of everyone, he will miss me the most. He was speechless. He grabbed his camera and woke up Satoko, we took pictures, then he went hunting again for a present. Well, he couldn’t gather anything up but tomorrow he is coming to the Eki (train station) to say good bye. I’m looking foward to that.

Today, I packed, we went bowling. ひさしぶり。It was fun. We taught Nakamori, and I said a few good byes.

Transferring is terrible.

I love these people. I am so thankful for eternity. I will return here, I will see them all again. But, I also will celebrate life for eternity with them in Heavenly Fathers Presence. Saying good bye is only temporary; I’m so thankful for that.

Also, Elder Nakata treated me to McDonalds. Interesting burger I did buy (that’s the Japanese order). Yoda speaks in Japanese order. I just realized that.

Elder Park is going to be my new Zone (Gifu) to become Zone Leader. Elder Dawson’s new comp is this (Toyama) Zone’s new ZL, and the Zone area honbu is coming to Kureha. Elder Nakata gets Elder Brockman. Good luck Brockman Choro. Elder Shaw the amazing became AP. I believe I’m transferring into Elder Nichols zone, which is way cool. Oh, my new comp is Elder Harvey, I’ve only heard good. Spoke with him for a sec, funny guy. I’m excited and have a renewed sense of happiness.

I love life!!
