Ever since I moved back from New York I've spent a lot of time alone. I never really clicked with the people that I went to high school with, and for the most part, there aren't a lot of (sane) young singles where I live, so my social life is pretty non existent..which I'm okay with. No company is better than bad company y'all.
I don't know why but I know that we as humans have a weird innate need to have people around us because we all need to know that we belong and are approved of, etc.
Sometimes being alone for a while is a really good thing. Few things are purer than loneliness, and time on your own really lets you discover who you are for real, when no one else is looking and no one is influencing you or approving or disapproving.
I don't have much else to say other than I really recommend this. We are scrambling like crazy to 'be' but aren't taking the time to 'become'...which is just as important.
(In other news, I start bible school in August, and throwing that on top of everything else, I will be busaaay for a while. Pray for me you guys! Looking forward to being immersed with Jesus knowledge. I'm finally getting used to you again, NC.)
