And so it is done. I celebrated my 23rd birthday and everything was beautiful. Just the way I had envisioned it. Well...there were many people I wanted to see, but I think due to different circumstances, I was not able to see them. There were some people I thought would surely text me a greeting but didn't even hear from. It's not even about not saying happy birthday to me that makes me sad. It makes me sad that we've become so disconnected for whatever reason. Many people will come into your life and then go. Only a few will come into your life and stay.
Anyway, I made a giant courageous move tonight. It was something that I had been too weak to do. I made a decision that was influenced more by God than it was by my heart or feelings. I know that one day, I will look back and be so thankful that God gave me the strength to do what I did tonight. I said the important things that I wanted to say. I will pray long and hard for hearts of stone to be soft again; for those who do not allow love to enter to lay down their fears and welcome Love with open arms.
I want to express my gratitude towards everyone who made my birthday an awesome one. You all have made my heart smile. =] I'm truly blessed and as I said to a friend of mine once- I may be walking on a rough road, but I'm in good Hands.
Here's a little prayer- my favorite prayer- to end this evening.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things that I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Amen.
