Guess where I'm choosing to spend my time on a Friday night?

I doubt anyone knows where I am right now. [specifically. duh, it's a library.]
Except perhaps if your name is Claralyn Burt or Kristen Soelberg.

This is where one will find me when I am having my truest alone time.
It's probably the most beautiful spot in the world.

It's quiet.
It's soft.
The most adorable kind of old folk wander around from time to time.
That time passes in a kind of way that is not too fast, yet not too slow.
And there are books. everywhere.
Face it. There ain't a sight greater.

I like General Conference.



I approached it differently this time. Jared suggested it. I wrote down 5 questions I wanted answered and took some mad notes throughout.

 After all the talks I went back through my notes and color-coded the answers that went along with the specific question on my laptop.

Let me tell you something: nearly every note I took was an answer. I didn't expect that. How incredible to very literally have prayers answered by Heavenly Father's servants.

I just wanted to share some of my questions and my one of my favorite answers with each.

Happy Conference Weekend :)

--What can I do to be a better leader?
"Get to higher spiritual ground so you can lift others higher" -Robert D. Hales

--How can I obtain comfort?
"Remember: the Lord beckons to ALL, no matter the affliction. He can heal anything." -Ronald A. Rasband

--How can I know the Lord's will?
"Any decision can be made by revelation through the Holy Spirit. This is divine revelation and anyone can receive it."- D. Todd Christofferson
and
"You can tell a prompting is of God if it is light and good. Record EVERY prompting you receive." -Paul B. Pieper

P.S. His was my favorite:
