Single

So just last night I received a phone call from my best friend telling me that they had broken up. I stopped breathing for what seemed like 5 seconds, speechless. I really had faith that it was going to work between them. But then again, he didn't share the same beliefs; he didn't have a heart for God. I guess I saw it coming. I just didn't want my friend hurt. But she's been hurt this whole month and shed so many tears. And she's really not the type of person to cry. I wish I was there to comfort her.

"I just wanted to hear the sound of your voice," she told me.

I really wanted to cry. I felt some of the hurt she was feeling. And now, I'm the only one of the three amigas who has never had a boyfriend AND had a break up.

thinking about this now brought me back to the time when we were at Suzanne Park, "being one with nature" and just sitting and laying there in the grass. They both told me that I was going to be the first to marry. I find that hard to believe and just laughed at their prediction. But I am hoping and praying that that person will be worth the wait. And when the time comes, I'll know and not fear. I won't be afraid to love.

Eternal Life

Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace, peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.
