thought: people is nuts...no really.
there are so many things spinning through my mind right now. i can't even being to describe whats going on. i was going to write about secrets...then people and their indecisiveness and self-centeredness...then i thought about writing about the ever growing independence gaining people in their 20s go through. OH! and i had thought about timing and how the Lord puts people in your life at the perfect times.
so i went with a general thought and a cheesy title. let's see where this goes....
i have an amazing small group. those ladies are some of the best i have ever met. and they have been placed in my life for this specific season. i never thought i would "click" in so fast with them....but i do. i love and adore each and every single girl in that group. they are all unique and created in such a way that you know that only God could have created them. i really could go on and on about each of these women, but i won't.
they have totally been there for me. what is cool is that i am the youngest in our group (which is nice cause i've always been the oldest in groups!) and most of the girls have been where i am right now....but they don't treat me like i'm some young, stupid early 20s ditz...and when they talk to me, its like i'm an adult...oh wait, i am. go figure. never once have i felt talked down to by any of them. we have fun too. sometimes we are like little school girls running around giggling but there is a sophistication to it, so that totally makes it okay...doesn't it?
one we do have is a lot of inside jokes...ones that people will never guess. (SPOILER ALERT: can you see the rough transition coming for keeping and telling secrets??) we laugh for hours about things that no one will ever understand..but we totally get it. why? because we understand each other and we trust each other. trusting a person means that you can confide in them (can ya feel it coming on?) and sometimes confiding in someone means that you tell them things you don't want others to know....but you have to tell someone. and then they don't want you to tell which makes it worse for you cause then you feel like you have to tell it then....
really now, are you following me? cause this is serious stuff. secret keeping is major. think about when you were a kid and someone told you something important....it drove you batty knowing that you had to keep your mouth shut about the subject. it's great how the same feelings plague us when we are older. what's even better though, is the determination of the person trying to figure out the secret. oh boy do i like to keep them guessing. it turns into a game. i'll do that to kids, tell them something classified and tell them they cannot tell anyone else. well, then the other kids want to know what was said and try so hard to find out. usually, the secret keeper either tells or the kids give up. it's great watching their minds work as they try to guess.
man i am tired. i think i am going to call it a night!
NO! wait, i'm not....
i just realized today that a few of my posts had comments. yay! i didn't think that anyone actually looked at this aside from the one follower it tells me i have when i log in. that was a pretty cool ego booster when i saw that.
but more on self-centeredness tomorrow. yes, i think that is what i will write about. but don't hold me to it. it could very well change between now and then.
