Many times we look back on certain parts of our past and wish we could go back. I've been thinking about this a lot lately. I miss old times. I miss having all my good friends so close. From a simple text or phone call they could be at my door step in a few minutes, but a lot of them have moved away to moved on to the next step of their lives. I've been particularly missing my "sister" Kasandra so much lately and of corse my sister Brenna. I can't wait for the holiday season to come just so I can have everyone back again for a little while! Best Christmas present EVER!
This is more of a letter to them I guess than anything. My friends are people that I can truly be myself around and not worry. It's the only time I get to act immature and have no bad feelings about it. They are the only people I can be completely 100% honest with and have the deepest and silliest conversations with. My memories with them are endless. Driving though rain puddles like we were on Splash Mountain while trying our best to sing along with Scream-o music, spending the entire day watching Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt films while eating mozzarella sticks, Making fun of the guys, late night Wal-mart fun runs, watching the entire friends show collection together, and making chocolate cream cheese cake at midnight. Such great memories that continue to pop into my head at random times make me just think and wish that I could have them all back again right now. Soon though, soon! We'll make even more memories! Can't wait to see you guys! xo -Liz
Hi Liz,
ReplyDeleteI love the way you share your heart! Family and friends so close that we can be ourselves with them ... I think that is what the Lord wants. And especially, I think that is the kind of Friend Jesus is to us. I can always be myself with Him. Even when I mess up, He already knows it, so what a relief to just talk to Him about it and ask for forgivness. I honestly think He wants to share everything ... my fun times, my sad times, my weakness, my strength, my joy, my sorrow.
I didn't mean to make this a sermon. That is just the thought that is so strong in my heart right now. Once He told me I would always be lonely for somebody on this earth ... but He can fill that spot and be my very best Friend. And of course, it is great that He brings the people we love back into our lives at different seasons ... and that He gives us memories.
I hope this is private (to you) because I am kind of rambling on today.
By the way, what does David think of you as a brunette? - Silly question ... I know he'd like you any way, for you are adorable. It really does change you though.
Thanks for writing these.
I love you, Grammy
Awww <3 I miss it too! Getting home from work and stuffing our faces and falling asleep on the couch while watching south park... (It's probably a good thing we don't do that anymore though or we would be super fat lol) And playing in the snow with Kasandra and the guys at 2 in the morning or getting bloody wounds from air soft wars. So fun! But only 2 more months and we'll be back in business for a few weeks. And then someday we'll all be back for good, running our cool little shop :)
