I'm in a very reflective mood. One of my good friends from throughout my Taylor years is moving down to the Dominican Republic (ie. the DR). She will be teaching little kids in Santiago. I'm starting to get itchy feet but I know that going abroad is an option for later on whether I stay with New Horizons or move on...
She will be coming back to the States sometime and I know that God will bring her back into my life when I most need her again.
I love that reassurance. God has taken many of my friends from me because they really aren't mine in the long run anyways (they are His Creation) and then He blesses me by putting them back into my life at some future date when I need a reminder of where I have been, am, and will be. I think that is why good-byes are not as hard as they could be. I have the assurance that I will see most of my really good friends either later on in this life or in eternity to come. There is a reassurance and a lack of worry associated with that truth.
I also got to do something I love to do this evening. My three roommates for June are present and accounted for. It is fun to have a full house because it was so quiet with just Hannah K. and I. Now the house is bustling and I do like it. I don't like for there to always be busyness. I like unexpected visitors and noise. At one point there were seven people in the house and it felt fine.
God is so good to me and I so don't deserve it.
