I'm thankful that it's You, the solid rock, on which I stand;

I've been told that I should post more often by a certain someone who is abandoning us all and moving to Texas. Texas, of all places. I'm totally kidding. I am extremely happy for her. :)
I just got back from working out. The West Center here at Winthrop is an amazing facility. Seriously, I'm glad it's there. I definitely take advantage of it. And I certainly hope my physical (& mental) health benefit from that!
I am now living by myself. My roomie moved out today. Not only was she my roomie but my best friend. She's been forced to grow up way sooner than she should. Sometimes we aren't aware of how our every day choices can affect what happens to us. Some choices can put you on a path that is the very opposite of the direction you were previously heading. In her case, I hope its just a side road that will eventually lead her back to where she can become the person she wants to be.
Not only has it turned her life upside down but I've found that as soon as I got that call on Saturday I've really had to grow up emotionally. I've realized that nothing is certain. That life can take unexpected turns that may scare the living daylights out of you! I am just so thankful that I have such a relationship with my God that I know my own human flaws. I am so emotionally screwed up without Him and I knew this. The past weekend was an extremely hard one for me. But I prayed. Constantly. I asked for just about everything you could ask for. Strength. Wisdom. Courage. Confidence. The list goes on. I knew that there was going to be no way I could handle it on my own. And I knew if I was having this much trouble that she was probably having a lot harder time. So, naturally, I prayed for her. And I will continue to do so. I know her. She's a very smart girl. Woman. She's going to do the right thing in the end.
I need to do some homework. I didn't do any yesterday because Monday's are so crazy. At least I know now not to plan anything besides going to class on Mondays. All I wanted to do after my last class was go to sleep. And that's exactly what I did. Sleep is good. Naps are awesome. I believe they are a college necessity. :)
I hope everyone is enjoying their week. I'm personally thankful that I only have two more full days of class.
Goodnight.
:)
