have you ever had that one friendship that meant so much to you? it meant so much to you that you could almost be content with just that, but then you remember the rest of your amazing friends and shrug off that thought.

i felt like this today.

my best friend jennifer and i got to talk today after a two and a half week hiatus. i can't put into words how much this conversation meant to me today. she is truly my sister in Christ. we struggle through the same things at the same time. we were seperated this summer (me at ridgecrest, her at home) so we only had 10 days to spend time together when i got back home. i was thinking that our relationship reminds me of one's relationship with Christ. she loves me despite who i am. she doesn't judge me. she encourages me. she tells me the truth whether i want to hear it or not. she doesn't get mad and walk away from me. she prays for me. she is absolutely precious to me.

we've been friends since junior year of high school, best friends since....i guess senior year of high school, and we will be friends til the day we die.
there's just something about sharing your heart with someone knowing that they aren't judging you, and that chances are, they are (or have) struggling with it too. she knows everything about me. EVERYTHING. she's the only one in my life that i have told everything to.

i will see her in a little less than a month.

one night at the end of the summer, we were out at the end of my driveway looking at stars and just talking about the happenings (physical and spiritual) of the summer when we saw a meteorite. at first we thought it was a really low shooting star, but it had a tail, so it had to be a meteorite.

neat story.

for those of you who don't revel in deep relationships...you are missing out on one of the biggest blessings from God himself. tear down your walls and open your heart to someone. it's totally worth it.
goodnight all.
