6 days and counting
I have six days before I close out the end of my third semester of graduate school. I'm still amazed that I have survived. I've got several projects to wrap up this week - so wish me luck. I've also got some an amazing friend who is hooking me up w/ tickets to this Friday's symphony!! Thanks B.L.!!! To many people this is no big deal; to me however, it is huge. I have a problem - no one can go with me. I have two tickets and no date!! I'm still working on this issue - but quickly becoming discouraged. I hope that I can find someone to go w/ me.
We had an absolutely amazing Celebration Sunday at church tonight. That is the third Sunday of the month when we all meet for Sunday evening praise and worship (the other Sunday's we are split up into small groups). It was great - I don’t' know if it was because it was Easter, if it was because it was the first Celebration in the new building, or because of stress, but a picture flashed up from our England trip and I started to cry. (Good pic Phil). I really don't quite know what it was, or if it matters. I know that I have changed so much b/c while I still felt the need to run and hide it wasn't as pressing. I just sat in the pew and cried sitting right next to a person I don't even know. To many people this is no big deal, for me who is not a crier, especially in public - it's kind of a big deal. I don’t' really know what it was, but I think I learned a little bit about myself tonight. I think I realized again how separated I am from the singles group and that I'm emotionally much healthier than I have been in the past. I realize that may seem like a contradiction of terms, but I know I will get closer to the singles group again as soon as school is out and I have more time. My emotional health however, has taken several months to recover. I'm really proud of the progress I've made.
I don't know why I'm so reflective today, maybe it’s the nature of wonderful spring days and time to think. Maybe it’s the fact that I'm procrastinating school assignments, maybe it’s because I finally feel like I can openly describe the emotions I'm feeling. I don’t' know - thanks for reading - sorry if I rambled, but that's kind of what I'm all about - southern rambling!! Have a great week

I'm glad you liked the pic. I loved so much that it went so well with the song "Beneath the Cross of Jesus" and I'm glad I got an opportunity to share it with others.
