Growing Pains and Triumphs

I'm not who I used to be and I'm not who I aspire to me. This is where I attempt to figure it all out ;)

Mush

My heart is so unbelievably at peace right now.
And I've been smiling for the last 20 minutes because he said the exact same thing as he left :)

The thing I love about this...is that life still goes on. Work still happens and family still bustles around. Friends remain the same and the weather keeps changing. But the world feels different and my heart fills up every minute of the day. I feel like I am being let in on a secret that not many people know about. That tomorrow I will get an invite in the mail to a secret meeting of Those in Love, and we will sneak into a heart shaped space and whisper and giggle about this feeling and this choice and those words and that look in our eyes.

Yes I am romanticising far too much, but I am letting myself have this. We are grounded and we are reminded of that every day. But this falling in love thing? It's different and it's fun and it's strange, scary and unknown. It's wonderful and exciting and exhilirating and heart breaking. I choose to embrace this, and I choose to give all I can to it.

And I am officially a sap!

I have discovered that my favorite thing to do with J...is pray :) I have never been much of an open pray-er (due to anxiety issues, me thinks), but I could pray for hours and hours with this boy. This is where the peace comes from, and when we're not praying often, the peace starts to disappear. We are learning our lesson :)

Ok...on to a Hillsong post...
