LSU and Life in QT

Wow this feels fake lol. Life is pretty boring, we are stuck in our apartment all day almost everday, except for friday we went to LSU to sign a baptism form or whatever so we got to hang at the LSU apartment for a sec and Elder Carson, one of my first friends in the mish, gave elder Ihrke and I haircuts. By far the worst haircuts either of us had ever gotten hahah but we didnt mind. Then we went and got Raising Canes (which Raising Canes originated out of LSU and the first Raising Canes is there) and then we took our Canes to the Baton Rouge Temple grounds and ate it there which was SICK. Then on our way back to Plaquemine we drove through the LSU campus and saw Mike the Tiger and it was all wayyy sick. That was the best day of the Self Isolation yet. I will say, Its pretty tough to ge a missionary right now. Ive noticed I'm not as happy and as joyful as I was when I was out serving people and seeing their smiles and getting the personable interaction. But over the phone we are still making people's day and doing the Lords work! So that's been alright. The hard days are just harder. But it's nothing that I cant get over, especially having Christ right there, knowing exactly how hard it is for me. It kind of reminds me of what Christ says in John 6:67-69 where he turns to his Disciples and says "will ye also go away?" But then peter says "where shall we go? Thou hast the words of eternal life". I say that because right now it's harder than it ever has been. And Right now I need to be quick to answer Christ, and say there is no where else I'd rather be. I obviously have to keep reminding myself of that because it's so hard, but I dont know those are just my thoughts on all of this. Life sucks for everyone right now. So my fear of missing out isnt too bad. Lol. I love everyone back at home. I'm grateful to be a missionary. I'm grateful for all the missionaries that arent as fortunate and had to go home. I pray for yall. I appreciate your examples. Love yall. Love Elder Wilson 1) me n mike the fake 2) ihrke and I at the temple
