every five years or so I look back on my life and I have a good laugh

[virginiaruth]

Imagine you could look at your life unrolled like a strip of film. Not even the whole thing: just a segment. Say, a few years. Imagine seeing the different phases, the different relationships, laid next to each other. The backgrounds, the scenes, naturally change, but more interesting are the people. Their images change; some fade in and out and in

I reiterate the feelings I stated last night about how wonderful our friendship is.

Ginny, you're just too awesome! I am in total agreement with you. I love looking at my life. I think it's awesome the way God reminds the Israelites to remember so continually, for it is in looking back that I so often see God's direction in my life. I think I have a good quote in an old journal about that -- I'll look for it.

And, as if you didn't know this already, if there is one thing the emotional roll-coaster of the past 2.5 years has taught me, it is that I can't really trust myself. That my emotions will change day-by-day. That I must be on guard because my heart sometimes wants to serve other masters.

You said it all so well. Thank you, dear!

lovely

I love reading your writing, Ginny, even when it's just in journal format.

I was just doing this yesterday, right before I came to watch Alias. I had taken off my shoes so that I could splash in the puddles, and I was struck suddenly by the memory of myself as an extremely prissy child. Myself at 10 would have been scornful of myself at 19.
