Insane: repeating the same actions and expecting different results.
I am insane. I also feel like I want to cry right about now after listening to the church sermon this morning. I'm not quite sure why I'm feeling so sad when it's a happy ending; the message was on the prodigal's son and actually caused me to think about it in a new way. The pastor read a short story to us about a girl who ran away to Detroit and lived the wild life before realizing what she was missing. Everyone was crying by the end of it....I'm going to post the link once it's on the church website in hopes that you'll watch it. Maybe you won't have the same connection, but it's worth a shot. I can't seem to reach Alexis and it's really hard. Every time I sit in church I think about how the message pertains to her life. Everytime I invite her to church she makes a joke and avoids it-kind of in the same way she won't hang out with my friends, for reasons I have yet to understand.
Social expectations really suck.
