explorations of a chaotic mind

boo Heidi why did you have to go home. i've been thinking lately about family and how much i love mine and how thankful to God i am that i got the family i did. my mom is the best, my dad is the best, my sister is the best, and my brother is...or will be...the best. no offense luke, if you read this, i know we'll get along better someday. and i've also begun to realize that i like myself a whole lot better than i thought i did. i was doing this assignment and one of the questions was "why do people hate to be alone?" and i think it's because they don't like themselves. who likes being with people they don't like? especially alone with those people. but i like to be by myself sometimes. i don't have to explain anything to me, and i always get my jokes. and there's no stress to please me, because, well, i like me even when i'm boring. and i've realized that even when i am alone, i never feel alone alone because God is always with me, and i know that sounds cliche (hate that word), but no really, i just realized that i can feel Him with me. it's kind of exciting for me because it makes it more real. i don't know quite how to explain it. i think i'm discovering me a lot, and i like it. and i like that i'm discovering God at the same time. i think quite possibly that i might be happy.
