From last Sunday...

Quietly happy. That's me right now. I'm reflecting on all my numerous blessings after returning home from a very full, rich day with good friends and family. Let me just say - driving through the country at 10pm listening to country music down low while having a deep conversation with dear friends in the car with you, the only light coming from the glowing radio dials and the two headlights on the dark empty highway ahead is truly wonderful. I learned some very amazing facts this evening that has me thinking... Hmm it's amazing how, after years apart, two people can feel the same way as each other and say the exact same things as each other- only God could have sustained that... I'm happy and yet sad about this... so happy for friends, yet sad the same couldn't have happened years ago for me and... well... well my friends, i had a full day. I want to write more but, there's so much to say. Life is amazing, you know that? And Steak n' Shake. And homemade pizza. And three hour drives through the country. And Christmas lights. And guitars, and a song played, and a song remembered. Dr. Pepper, all you can drink. Halo 1 and 2. Starbucks that closes before 10:30 pm. Country music. Dear friends. Long stories. Resolution. Good conversations. Bittersweet memories remembered. Life. This is it. I'm gonna go think some more, and get some sleep.

Stay the course, yall. Stay the course.

I saw you today, Meagan. We stood next to each other and talked to the same person. Without talking to each other. It's so awkward now, so many walls. I wish i had heeded my own advice i give now. I did not stay the course. God don't let this happen anymore, not to me again, not to her again, not to anyone close, not again. Guys - Stay the course - Wait.

haha! Obviously country music plays a big part in your life =P

Oh and yeah, I think it's incredibly awesome when my friends have the same thoughts as me. And yes, I think God does that as well as places certain people in my life that think the same way I do or are going through the same things.

So yeah, pretty much awesome.
