Okay, so I haven't had time in the past day or so to write anything. School is keeping me pretty busy. lol Anyway I'm going to attempt to come up with a cute analogy to support a single idea, so here it goes. lol
School is like life and the pre-existence. (life before we were born to this earth.)
Life: When we're young our parents gave us a hug and a kiss and sent off to school, to the cold, cruel world.
Eternal perspective: Our Heavenly Father sent us to this cold, cruel world.
Life: In school, if we do our reading and homework, we learn more.
Eternal perspective: If we read our scriptures, and study, we likewise, learn more.
Life: Sometimes in school we just learn things and other time's we put what we learned to a test, and hopefully we pass and get a good grade and choose the correct answers.
Eternal perspective: On earth we learn some things and then we're tested and hopefully we will pass by not sinning and choosing the wrong answer.
Life: Sometimes we learn things that we didn't want to learn that make us uncomfortable.
Eternal perspective: We see and hear things that make us uncomfortable and that don't lift us up.
Life: Sometimes we wonder why we're learning these things in school, how are they going to help us later?
Eternal perspective: We go through scriptures and experiences and wonder how it pertains to us, now, or later.
Life: Sometimes you get a bad teacher and you are not able to really learn from them. Sometimes you get a really amazing teacher that will teach you everything!
Eternal perspective: Sometimes you run into people that you don't like, but there is still something to learn from them. Sometimes you run into people that teach you so much and bless your life.
Ok, so that's about as much as I came up with. I apologize if it really doesn't make any sense or is confusing in any way. :/ I just thought that it all kind of fit well together and well, it made sense in my mind. lol
