Well I guess you could say that I have felt like a tender, perhaps even a wounded animal for the past few days.
What I have been wanting is companionship with the body, for a couple months now.
I have been back in church, it's been okay.
Been feeling a lot more opposition hurled at me, it doesn't seem like the journey to find authentic friendships will be easy. I feel that The Lord has given me knowledge of discernment but the act of carrying it out with my heart wide open freaks me out. It's as if the way I will have to build these bonds will be out of some sort of character instead of myself. I find it kind of funny that The Lord said he will take us as we are, but the church has a hard time with that. Guess I'm just expecting the worst. It's hard go build deeper concern when it keeps coming at you aimlessly. Oh well! Party on Wayne!

I want to go for a midnight drive and just jam out to some music- such as stahan! Great christian folk artist by the way to any one out here with curious tastes! But the thing is if I end up going out for a drive and run out of gas before Tuesday I forfeit my fun.... Why would I want to go out at 1 just to get gas and come back home? Sounds like a joke mon.

*hugs* Don't mention it.
You've said some things here on the forums lately about losing hope, and wondering if God's love is still there for you. If you can't find His love within the body of Christ, where CAN you find it? So keep visit, and we'll keep loving on you, kiddo. You're our sister, and we're glad you're with us. ^_^

First day of work I DON'T WANT TO!! haha I get really nervous walking into a new place alone.

I promised myself I'd go to bed early tonight because I only got about 4 hours sleep last night and here I am at 3:45am.
I hate daylight savings time!! They should call it "let's mess up everyone's sleep schedule for no reason time"
Of course daylight savings time has absolutely nothing to do with me being up this late.

It was like "Lets get off work an hour early and still get paid for it!". Last night kind of sucked though, I forgot to set my alarm forward at the house, thankfully I had a friend staying over and he was like "Dude, do you realize you have to be at work in 10 minutes?". Quickest shower of my life

I brought my violin in today to play to my Kindergarten class. I put on a acoustic worship song that I have currently been getting my funk on to (What I loosely call 'worship' since it has reference to God maybe twice and can easily be mistaken for a love song) and just let my violin playing flow out of me as I heard the melodies in my head. There were children standing there watching me, some children were idly doing other things.
But then the bridge started... the song was intensifying, my heart was stirring with wild and relentless joy, I couldn't hold back. I watched on as the children's jaws dropped at the sight of their teacher jumping on top of the table, breaking out in a wild melody to accompany the song.
One girl at the computer pointed at me and yelled, "YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO DO THAT, YOU'RE A TEACHER!" I grinned. I began to move and sway and tap my foot, all while bopping my head. More children dropped what they were doing and just stared. The last chorus was about to reach its end and move to the slow and soft descent. I was going to give the last 30 seconds my best, when a lady from the office walked in to my classroom.
The blood drained from my face, I was like a deer caught in the headlights. I had 3 seconds to get off the table, turn the music off and bring my 'professional' game face back on. I was searching for some logical answer as to what was happening when the office lady beamed me the biggest smile and said how much she wanted to hear me play. I caught the words in my mouth, a bit amused. Her eyes didn't shy away from the bubbling fascination behind them. She went on, saying I should continue to play for her.
I embarrassingly stated I have trouble playing in front of people (children who are indifferent to off notes are the exception) and that I couldn't possibly do that. She sighed and said 'One day' and happily tottered back to the office.
Now I'm just waiting for the parents who are going to turn up tomorrow morning, asking me why their children told them their teacher was on top of the tables.
Ah, but it was so worth it. It was truly a perfect way to start my week.
