(Easter dinner-I don't know why it's so small)
Well, it's been a loooooong time since I've written on here! Things have just been pretty smooth I guess, as far as my heart and life go. Easter was wonderful, with a great Sunday dinner shared with friends. I went to a Charlie Hall concert in Springfield, which was really a worship service, and that was fabulous. He's one of my favorites. My friends Nate and Sandy got married, thanks to their small group. We made it through our first week of MAP testing this week, with one more to go...and no one died! That about sums up the last three weeks. :) And coming up...most of my mom's side of the family will be coming to Branson for Grandpa's birthday extravaganza!

(The happy couple: Nate and Sandy) In the last several months I've felt my heart staying at a relatively steady and restful place, which I believe has been the result of accepting the truth about hope, which I've written about in the past. I feel like things are falling into place, in my understanding of my heart, how it works, and what it needs. I find I'm more and more able to look at things objectively, not emotionlessly, but with a deeper trust in God's good plans.
In short, I guess I feel more mature, more at peace, less shakeable. Twenty-five has been a good year for me, and I'm not even dreading twenty-six, which is a mere month away. Here's to getting older and more mature!

There is nothing more attractive than someone who is okay with themselves. By okay I really mean confidant and comfortable.
I think you're great!
life is a jouney, spoken and written often i know, but it is so true. each day is a new part of the path and when we finally reach the end, the goal that we were being molded to achieve means so much more than we could ever have dreamed. Each trial,heartbreak, laugh and tear is shaping us into who we were created to be.
those are my thoughts in response to you entry. i know you are aware of it but i thought i'd add it anyway. love you sis!!
They are re-united, huh? Well I guess that is what I get for stalling and having no guts!
Twenty five...hey, your car insurance must have gone down, too, eh?
Jeff: it did do down a bit! every little bit helps. :)
Yep, that's little brother Ben. Okay, okay, so I'm still in denial I suppose.
A boy variety? lol I love how you worded that question. It is of my opinion through thought and experience (ehhm, not the best I will admit) that I am more the marrying girl than the dating one.
I came to this conclusion about a year and a half ago. I'd known it all along, but of course had to go and find out for myself.
I've been as happy as can be ever since. :D
I'm to the point now where I even feel sorry for people who pass up the chance to really be single. It's so important to discover life as a individual without depending on someone else to interpret it for you. I used to think the saying "the gift of being single" was a joke, but it is infact quite true.
