Ick!

I talked to my friend LeighAnne today. I love her. I truly do. What is it about grief that brings people together?

I talked to her like 5 minutes and we were both weeping. I miss her. And I miss Dustin. I miss knowing that he is there. Its so final. I mean I know we are all going to die, but when someone does its like boom...its over. Your time here on earth is done. I can remember feeling this about when my father died. Realizing that it wasnt just that I wouldnt see him...but that I wouldnt see him ever.

Im tired. Ready for Easter break. School has been difficult. Lots of garbage going on that takes up space in my head and energy of my heart. I hate conflict and politics. They suck.

A bright spot in my day was sweet Emily. She is one of those high achieving students. A junior...one who gets the gospel and is a hard worker who knows whats what. She loves to have fun and laugh but can get the job done. She has a gentle and kind heart. Her sweetness was a special reward today. Its so easy to lose sight of what we do...little reminders help alot.

Emily got to me today too! (Sometimes I wonder if she knows just how much she blesses those around her. But, I suppose if she did know that would take away from the way Christ is so evident and glorified through her.)She does bring me a true sense of joy, shortly followed by a now common declaration of "I love Emily Rush!"
