So here I am
Back again,
In a circle I go.
Escaping away
for just a few days,
and now its all over.
Too soon!
So yes my ghosts, my angels, summer is officially over. It ends at sunset, when you are driving away from a town so unlike your own, but so fitting for you. It ends as the light rays fill the sky behind the mountains. It ends as the road folds out in front of you in an endless line of white, yellow, and black.
We went camping in Ruidoso this weekend. It was beautiful, I had forgotten about nature living in this concrete cage. The trip wasn't very exciting, it was cold, and we saw deer. But even in its boring state it was amazing. Being away from everything and everyone is amazing. Not thinking about school, or work, or stress, or family or roommates, or anything but just simply being there, just simply being. If you ever really want to get close to God, go out of this concrete place and find actual nature, how can anyone not find Him when being in a place like that?!
Seems like everytime I go out of time I don't want to come home. And listening to M88 I want to be gone from here. :::SIGH::: When will I escape this City?!
Last Wednesday I went to my first bible study ala XA (chi alpha) through Harvest Christian Center. It was an amazing lecture. An apologetic is what it is called, and while the name escapes me as to its meaning, it was very awesome. I also decided something. With this group I dont care if I am accepted. I am not going to feel hurt like i did with the Intervarsity crew. I was looking to them for sisterhood, for friendship, for fellowship. This time, this is a class, a place to learn, not to make friends. Do I still want Christian friends? Of course, but why cry over the hurtful ways of people. I have those who care about me and my spiritual growth, and maybe, just maybe, God is hand-picking who he puts in my life for a reason.
Anyway, I lost my train of thought, and have a large bit of homework to do anyway, so my friends, until next time!
