Surrounded

Well, yesterday was quite the eventful day. It was our spring formal, the first and only one that I was going to. After class I left school to go pick up my date from the airport. Unfortunately, I didn't make it to the airport because I got into an accident. I am fine, just a little tender, but my car is not. I won't share the story of what exactly happened here, but if you want to talk about it just give me a call. Nevertheless, my date and I made it to the dance at about 10:00 p.m. (4 hours late) after taking a little trip to the hospital. Better safe than sorry. And yes, I did end up going to the dance after all.

Let's talk about today. Because of what happened yesterday I felt the need to be around people all day. Despite all of the things that I have to do and that I could have done, I spent the majority of my time being around people. I just felt like I needed that. It felt safe. And I wasn't even a bit concerned about all of the things that have to get done. That isn't even a concern for me right now. I feel like I really understood the meaning of life today. Spending it with people you love. It can't get much better than that. And now I am alone in my room wishing someone was here. I really am doing fine, but it is just hard to be alone with your thoughts. Like I said, I feel safe when others are around. I am craving people, which is exactly what Jesus intended for us all along. I'm glad to know that I understand what is meant to be.

Thank you to all of those who were with me today. You really made my day special.
