I <3 Anna!

Today I met Anna at the Chop House at the Bass Pro place thingy (official name). It was absolutely amazing! We were talking about it and admittedly sounded like lovers, but I had missed seeing her and her voice and spending time together so much! After lunch we went to Marble Slab and just sat out in the shade, had ice cream, and talked. It was wonderful! I feel so fortunate because God has blessed me in so many ways - in the ability to maintain the meaningful friendships from high school and move on from the draining ones, to meet new people and form tight bonds with them, to attend school and actually enjoy it, and of course to keep close with all my family. I feel too blessed; I don't understand why God would shower me with gifts the way He does - I don't deserve it! Today was wonderful and only served as a reminder to me that a high school friendship can become more than just that ... and that it can actually last if it's something worth working at.
