Friendships are something that I think about
a lot. Not only the friendships that I'm privileged to be a part of,
but also the friendships that I have yet to discover. I often see
people passing by and wonder about what has brought them to be here at
the same moment as myself. I wonder about what has happened to them,
and what they feel passionately about. I almost never stop to talk to
them though, fearing the worst in myself and in them...
The thing is, my friendships always seem to complicate themselves. This takes root in my tendency to desire a certain depth in relationships that isn't desirable to everyone. I hope for too much, always looking for more than what's truly necessary, and in the past, never being happy with what I got.
But here's what I do have; a great bunch of friends that are there for me. A group of people both young and old that have supported me throughout the best and hardest times of my life. People ready to hear my most inane ramblings or simply be there beside me when there's nothing to say.
God has truly blest me and I am eternally grateful. Everytime I start in a new era of my life, I remember God's faithfulness to me in the past and my spirit can't help but be lifted.
For those of you that may be unaware, I have moved to Chicago and have started school at Moody Bible Institute. I will hopefully be reporting on my experiences a little more regularly...
