I hung out with an old friend today. I haven't seen him in over 4 years. I was "taken a-back" at how 'grown-up' he looked. When I last saw him, he was a boy in my eyes. And there before me stood a man ( Read more... )

There it is again, the feeling of being inbetween youth and adulthood and trying to figure ourselves out again. I feel so young sometimes as well. Especially when people imply that maybe I'm immature and not rising up to responsibilities. But poo on them!!

Praise God for the hope.

oh thanks so much, lately I have been feeling not so small...well at times, I mean, I think at least now I am trying to stick to my skin instead of slopping around in it and it works sometimes. I'm so glad that you know where you are now. :) it gives me a lot of hope. I've been in cars before. I looked at the sky and knew that I would never be under it and be able to be seen but now, I'm not so sure of that. I know I will not be recognized as a person, someone, who has what they have and can say, this is what I have, look, look at these clothes I'm swearing they are mine, this. is. my. body. I mean, you look at people, just people, almost anyone and they don't even think of their body other than health and stuff, they just accept it and know that it's theirs and they are sure they are inside it and they have so many struggles otherwise, besides that but I can't even get past the fact that the fingers I'm typing with, a hand in front of me is mine, they're not mine, it's hard to believe. Sorry, I'm rambling so much ( ... )

I really like these thoughts. And I've had those moments too....this is my hand, my body..but how did I get inside? such a trippy and rad feeling...feels just not right sometimes...but I guess that's why I also think we were created for eternity...these bodies are just a shell that we inhabit for a few years...like a turtle :P
