you and me, just magic
They are the ones I prayed for. The ones I longed for. Hoping someday I could introduce them as my friends and smile to myself because they are just so dang cool. I replay all of our conversations in my head and giggle with pure happiness. It's love!! That's love.
We sang together to the ukulele and it was beautiful. There were high notes and my creaky voice couldn't hit all of them, but I smiled and kept going. It was so pure. Looking around at a room of people I LOVE and watch lips moving and music flowing.
maybe I think you're cute and funny
I wish I could express the joy I feel in good company. It just feels safe and warm and special. That's what I think heaven will be. Good company, good conversation, and good evenings. God is so good you guys. He really knows what we righteously desire and waits until he knows we need it to give it to us. I have been so blessed in my life. All of my posts end up taking a spiritual turn, but GUYS. The spirit is so good. I am so grateful for the gospel!
He wrote me a letter from Tokyo. Talked about thinking and growing. We have grown up across the world, but he still remembers the things I did in sixth grade. I remember borrowing his Japanese pencils because they were so cool and fun to play with. He taught me how to twirl the pencil around my finger during math class with Mrs. Mock. She made us have our desk partner check that we wrote down our homework. My sixth grade self thought it was terribly sad that she didn't trust me.
Been climbing more rocks lately. It is awfully hard, but so rewarding. I miss competing sometimes so this gives me an outlet. I miss the rush of adrenaline from hurling myself through the air into a sand pit. How do we get so obsessed with such useless activities?? But they aren't useless. They are useful for the soul. Far more useful than the classes I trudge through and the tasks I complete at work. They give me confidence and purpose. Things to improve on and goals to work towards.
Renewing my passport this week & gearing up for a grand adventure. I want to have something to say about my life when I talk to my posterity. Not that I missed opportunities and gave up chances. This life is about TAKING CHANCES.
So here's to new friends and new experiences!
