One thing I can trust...
So, I’ve been missing some friends lately.. Nothing happened between us, just time… People change, situations change, and life changes. It’s a whirlwind, ya know?

Disappointment is my own fault because of...

Father, I want to know Thee, but my coward heart fears to give up its toys. I cannot part with them without inward bleeding, and I do not try to hide from Thee the terror of the parting. I come trembling, but I do come. Please root from my heart all those things which I have cherished so long and which have become a very part of my living self, so that Thou mayest enter and dwell...

i’ve learned that a broken heart doesn’t just go away because you tell it to, or want it to, or convince yourself it’s gone. it’s there. until you decide to face it, every last depth of it. and after that it will probably still be there. but at least then the healing can begin.
