*Gasp* Jen! That's fantastic about Dr. Spring! Oh, that's so amazing, congrats! You're my favorite clarinet player! Remember me when you're famous, ok?
Looking for God... it's a feeling I am very familiar with. Speaking from my own experiences of God... despite my insistence to get rid of Him, He keeps shaping my life. Sometimes it's kind of annoying. Like, I don't see it when it's happening, but when I look back I think, "Oh, God, you did it again. Dang nabbit." Because really, too many things in my life add up and make sense... But then, I always was optimistic and look on the bright side of life. Even when things are screwy, I think of the positive things, and I see God there. I question the Bible and argue with the pastors all the time, insisting that the Bible doesn't make sense, but when it comes to faith and the actual existence of God (forget all the theology and Church stuff) He's shown Himself to me too many times, even when I really didn't want to see Him. Alll I can say is this, like the Bible passage, "Seek and you will find," if you really want God back, look for Him, crack open a Bible and try not to fall asleep. Try to pray. I don't want to turn anyone away from God, but religion isn't for everyone. Sometimes it drives people crazy. Sometimes it heals so well and it's a glorious medicine, the best in the world. Find what's best for you. Good luck.
