here we go again

God works in funny ways. what a sense of humor...

i confess -- i have a really bad habit: i should really not judge a person by his/her "cover." first impressions are important, but not everything. they don't tell nearly everything about a person or how they operate. first impressions are for those in the professional world, where things are fake and on the surface. they don't work in real life and they're undeniably useless.

i've been (sort of) patient and he always provides in the most unbelievable ways. last year, i only had guys to hang out with, but this year, there's a nice bunch of (gal) friends that i hang out with here. it's a really nice change.

and all this time, i've been wondering when things will finally happen. it's true what they say: things come to those who wait in grand anticipation. i knew that he would send good things my way, that things would look up, and they have. i'm blessed, i really am.

i only pray that i keep my heart, mind, and ears open to those things you have in store for me...

because only you know.
