Envision Laie

We attended the town meetings for the growth of the whole Ko'olauloa area, which runs from the North shore, south to Kualoa Ranch area.  It was a whole evening of events around planning.  When I tried to express my opinion, I was "attacked" by one of the men at our table, "you don't have an interest here, you will finish your mission and go home."  I counter-attacked, and I should have kept quiet.  Actually, I answered that I was indeed interested.  But I kept quiet for the rest of the evening.  He also suggested a light rail system to run behind along the mountains, of the temple, university, etc.,  A dumb suggestion.  My "worldly" interests.  

This is the hub of the Church, so it is a place of interest.  Jay reminded me that it won't happen.  And another woman, as we were leaving the Cannon Center said, "I come to these every 20 years, and it doesn't go anywhere".  I smile as I think of such growth and development.
