It has been a crazy week, but its for the best
I don't do this very often, but its actually a post with substance!!
1. friendships are hard. not just being someone's friend and being there for them, but expecting them to be there for you as well. At what point do you say that you don't want someone as your friend anymore? I consider myself to be a very accepting, forgiving person, but I've realized that I have limits, and I have standards. As sad as it sounds, some friendships aren't worth it, and that freaking sucks. You have the friends that you spend all your time with, you have friends that you see every so often but your friendships is still just as strong no matter how little you see each other because you can count on each other. then there are friendships that are forced, casual friendships that are more friendships of convenience. and then there are the ones that end up hurting you, and that really sucks. but im lucky, the ratio of amazing friendships to bad friendships is great and i have fabulous friends!
2. relationships can be just as difficult, but at the end of the day it's not the crap that satan puts in the way to destroy it, its what God made it and the love that you have for each other and God. to meld your life together with another person is so mindbogling when you think about it. I don't see how relationships can survive without God.
3. Seattle is my destination for this weekend which is great. but im going to help one of my dear dear friends move there for a long while and thats sad. i am fortunate to be able to spend this time with her though, and i wouldn't trade a 28 hour car ride for anything else.
4. God has been amazing, through all the little things He has completely taken care of me and shown His love in every way possible. I cannot tell you how blessed I am, and completely undeserving. The purpose of my life is to serve Him, it's just a matter of finding the way I can do that best. |
