Looking back through my journal - I found a few random thoughts

My Entry:
If you're not afraid to be rejected, you keep putting your hand up. If you're not afraid to be ignored, you keep putting yourself out there. If you're not afraid to be criticized, you do exactly what you want.

My prayer requests went along with that entry. It was becoming evident that certain relationships were going to change - mostly for the better. I wrote about how my stomach was in knots and how I wanted to be able to communicate what I was feeling without confusing the other person. (Funny how that feeling still exists, but I have gotten better at it. Now instead of a knot - it's more like a crazy insane butterfly)

I wrote about a particular song, and what it meant to me. I did this often, and found that it helped bring sense into my relationship with God. His sense of humor continues to amaze me, and reminds me to never get too comfortable with where I'm at - for fear I may lose sight of what the big picture really is. I thanked God for putting such 'comfortable' people around me, reminding me to keep my focus - and be that accountability.

That particular entry was about 2 very important people in my life. People that I had grown extremely attached to in a short period of time, one by a pure mistake (but I wouldn't have it any other way) and the other by common interests, expectations and continuous run-ins (but over time finding out we are 2 very different people - but it still works somehow)

Whether they know who they are or not, they continue to be a vital part in my journey - so Thanks =)
