Hi...
September 20 2005
I just want to offer an apology to everyone who is and who isn't reading this. Some of you know and some of you don't know what this year has been like so far for me. I don't use my circumstances as justification, merely as indicators of who I am. In many ways I have not been who I believe God has created me to be; but in a sense, I believe it is all part of the journey nonetheless.
Lately God and I have not been on speaking terms. In fact I haven't been on intimate speaking terms with nearly anyone. The things in mymind are staying there for the first time in a long time and it makes me happy. I realize I don't need anyone and I don't even need anything. But the great thing is that I don't care to need those people and things anymore.
Confusingly, even as I have pushed God away so far, I don't know if I have ever felt closer. He's there and will always be there.
And that is all the comfort I need.
Maybe I haven't spoken to Him in a while. And maybe when I do it isn't as loving and beautiful as I hope. But nevertheless, He is always there and I feel and know that.
But I do apologize. I have hurt people. I have injured relationships, possibly forever. But I am not the least bit angry or upset because I know He is here with me, regardless of who I am.
I do love you all. You are all in my thoughts daily. I thank God for you. I want to foster whatever He has for me. Just call--662.832.1734--I'd love to make time for whoever you are.
