As the flames flicker...

I rearranged my room in many different ways before I decided with an arrangement that I liked most. I understand what you meant by making my room more inviting. I really like how my desk is situated now. I was reading on feng shui and it said that you should position everything in your room so that wherever you are, you have full sight of the door. There's a more cozy feel to it now, especially at this moment. I have candles lit all around my room. The warmth really does sooth my heart. A little bit of soft music playing in the background. I feel your presence here even though you're not physically here.

There's a reason why I did what I did 4 years ago. Little did I know that taking someone to mass with me would change our lives so much. I can't help but believe that God had chosen me out of all people to reach you. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much.

I don't know what the future holds, but all I know that's concrete in my life is, God and the love I have for you. Where you may be heading is not be where I want you to go, but I trust in God's plans for us and I will always love you, regardless.

I find a lot of peace in knowing that God is taking care of many people I care deeply about. I'm beginning to love prayer and can't go a day without it, which is not something I would've said a couple of years ago. I really think God was calling for my attention so long ago, and it's not til now that I'm actually paying attention and surrendering to Him. Maybe it did have to take so much for me to finally pay attention, because I know He wouldn't just hurt me.

I truly believe that He's putting people in my life for a reason. My community is a prime example of how He's taking care of me. I'm filled with so much gratitude. It's amazing!

Here's a little quote to end the night.

"You will find as you look back upon your life
that the moments when you have really lived,
are the moments when you have done things
in a spirit of love."

~ Henry Drummond
