summation

Today's been a great day, yes it has!

Just finished helping a friend with some Greek homework. Did some revisions to a paper that i got back. Been in classes ALL day from 9:00-6:00pm with lunch break and assembly between.

God you've been great. You've held it together for me today. My eyes have been opened once again, a little wider to see different view points and meanings of your word. I'm just in awe of the privilege that is mine to be a student right here right now despite the challenges and the difficulties.

It's Tuesday and tomorrow is a brand new day for me. To do work and to laugh and to play badminton and just to enjoy the life that is mine- this gift.

Right now as i am sitting in the library just typing this i am just intrigued and amazed by your wonderful love towards us. This love is especially comforting when it seems that I cannot answer some questions in life. You offer wisdom to relate to my fellow-man not only on a information level but also on a relational heart-to-heart level. To make those friendship and family connections deeper, for it is what really brings depth and meaning to life.

So this has been a good day...not necessarily because something GRAND has happened but because i have tried to consciously see the importance of the little things- the aha moments, the delicious lunch, the friendly-heated debates, the Greek tutorial-when we triumphed over parsing irregular verbs...being able to sum up my day...its the little things in life that matter, the smaller parts that make up the whole.

As one of my fav. artists sings 'You were much closer than I realised'- I love you for the closeness and comfort even when it seems like you are distant because I don't get a specific answer that i am asking for. I love you for that.

Whatever happens- that is the bottom line, the undercurrent of my life- that you love me and through this love you make me better, stronger, weaker, humbler, meeker, wiser...You're just taking me one day at a time because you know how temporal I am. I can deal with this, with your help. I can deal with life, love, studies and all the rest of it.

That's why i can sleep in peace, for you alone make me dwell in safety...Night night
