It is hard for me to believe that 11 or so years ago I was living in the dorms at PSU. (I can now call them dorms, I'm no longer in Res. Life!) I was one of those weird people who actually loved dorm life, and I met some incredible people in that season of my life. I am blessed to be able to say I now live closer to many of them as they live in the KC area. I am so thankful for that. Most of them have married and had kids (or are about to!), and it's so neat to see who they are now. Eleven years is a long time, and none of us are the same people that we were then. Personally, I am glad I am not the same...maturity takes time and I have learned so much since then, which is a good thing.
So, tonight Ally came over and we just sat and chatted. I was a tad nervous, but I knew it would go well. It was really neat to see how well Ally is doing now. Sometimes in life you move on and often think, "I wonder whatever happened to so and so." I will admit over the years I have wondered that about her, as she was pretty special to me in that season of my life. I was immature and didn't show that then, but I really did care about her. And tonight I realized that I still do...
So tonight was really cool.
Ally, let's do it again, but let's not wait 11 years, okay?
Good friends are blessings from God. Let me encourage all of you not to take one of them for granted. After the last chapter of my life, I learned how quickly friendships come and go. I'm glad Ally is in back in my life...
Life.
Is.
Good.
