(I wait for the lord, my soul waits, and in His word I hope. My soul waits for the lord, more than those who watch for the morning, more than those who watch for the morning. Psalm 130: 5,6) That's in case the picture got cut off, that's what the verse says
As a precursor, i just want to say this one isn't really for anyone but me, so I'm talking to myself here. so it's more of an account than something with a point to it.
So, starting off, I'm going to relay from the beach trip until now. I've had fun, and seen things that I love to see. I was so close to a wild dolphin! I was pulled over by cops while I was on my BIKE -_- (for no good reason i might add). I felt the wind coming from the rising heat of the mucky North Atlantic Ocean. I played with jellyfish, saw of what they were made! Got sore from this thing people love to call P90X. yeah, good for me, bad for walking muscles. I spent 24 hours a day for a week with people that I normally see for around 12 hours at a time. No sweat, we made it. Overall, an experience I'd like to think as something I'll think of when I remember the good old days.
Next week was a week not to forget. I lost a girlfriend to my favorite place in the world for three months this time. I felt like i reconnected to someone who's been dear to me at a distance it seems. I also connected with someone that's been a part of my funny side of life for years now, and I got to live in high school again for a night. I laughed with different people and renewed my lakeside tradition of staying up late and eating stuff that'll take at least 5 years off my life. Met new people, made new friends. This is the kind of week my life moves forward with, milestones.
As soon as I woke up that day that was to be the last for 3 months, I determined I was going to get as much in as I could. It started well with seeing her run to me with such happy eyes and a hug that let me know that love was what bonded us strong (: (: Swimming at the YMCA, so much fun! just so so so much fun. that's all I can think to say about it, it was just fun! And soon after, being as it I was running on about 3 hours of sleep, we found it part of the day to take our first nap. SO nice :D the rest of the day was with her friends, but it wasn't bad. The last house, pretty sweet. We got to just come in and do whatever, rest and talk and laugh. But soon the end was come, and we left. at like, 3 in the morning. then we left from her house to go to the airport, where i had to walk away. I had to turn around and walk away from the happiness I get from every time I see her. My life wasn't over, it just was a sad sad moment.
But when things like that happen, it opens doors up for other things, things that I am very happy for! It was just the very next day I had the chance to visit my friend from years ago. Just a relaxing time with a friend and her goof of a brother, AND another friend from the beginning years. It was good, we laughed the old laughs from years past.
The next day made my week a whole lot brighter, i finally got what I knew would make me happier. my friend. who, even though I know that she's not doing it on purpose, makes me smile in pretty much everything she does. It's just been that way. It's most certainly good to know that me, someone who really doesn't feel the need to lift my emotional burdens much by telling others, has this person to talk to when I know that when something is significant enough to bother me, she helps me with it. even if it is in between long periods of time. i just like knowing this person is there, basically. I shouldn't go on about it anymore, I made my point.
so here i am, facing summer once more. It started out rough, but i think through the downhill parts that i need not be scared. I know that i have these people here, but more than all of them, I have one that couldn't let me down, even if he tried, which he would also never do. My God is my Savior, my gps that tells me when to make a U-turn when possible, my electric fence that jolts me from crossing into the bull's pen, and my favorite pillow to rest my head on and steal away my bad thoughts. It's a main comfort seeing a long list of things about a God who loves me that I know for sure are true. Unconditional love, all knowing, the best comfort ever, the list won't stop. He made it that way. And I consider it my very proud privilege to be able to talk about Him like this. My ultimate best friend.
it is good to write these things down. it's fun to keep record and go back and remember what you call the good old days. it sounds like you don't take experiences for granted, which is good. you should always be thankful for the people which you are inclined to write about (and other important people in your life) and rmeember what they mean to you. Writing about them is a good way to do that. It's so much more enjoyable to read this because it has correct grammar.
