Date night! Woot woot.

Ahhh.... another great date. I loved tonight... I really really did. I went to a movie - simple enough, but it made all the difference in the world. Mmm... where to start. I think that these recent, shall we say, "trying times," have made me into - dare I say - an introvert! I actually thoroughly enjoyed being by myself this evening... and not just enjoyed, I actually got sort of giddy! I mean, what a release, a freedom, that's found in solitude. Think about it - nowhere else are you more true, more comfortable being who God made you to be. So I made myself laugh.... and I talk when I drive... and I whistle when I'm walking in public places... I'm happy-go-lucky, I don't worry about what anyone thinks. I don't fear mis-interpretation or judgement or anything. I can be me, fully, one hundred percent. And it makes me wish that others could see me during those times. I don't want to see them or know they're there but those times would give so much insight into my soul. So picture what you can, and maybe, just maybe, you'll feel like you know me a wee bit better. So thanks, Leroy, for being a part of my evening (and helping me decide which movie to see). I value you so much. Thanks for being a good listener. And thanks to Mum and Meg for loving me with open ears as well. Much love to you all... and to myself!

My, my... it's Wednesday already... and still not a lot is going on. I didn't have to work yesterday, which was nice. Nikki came over and spent the night; she's so fun to have around. I love our talks!

The past couple of days I've done a lot of thinking, and God has used family (thanks Mom, Megan and Joy), friends, and downright difficult situations to help me to see some areas in my life where I'm falling short. So here's a question for you: What would you do if you had committed "sins of omission" against someone? Like, you failed to do something or be something to them... do you take the time to apologize and talk about it, or do you just start doing what you should have been doing all along? Joy says not to say anything, cuz that's 'over-spiritualizing' it... but if I was on the receiving end, I'd want the person to say something... what do you think? (This is not just a time/space filler question... I honestly do need imput here!) And here's another up for debate: True or False - if you don't outwardly express gratitude, then you're not really all that thankful. What do ya think? Much love to all...

maybe?

Okay, if you want insight into my soul, go to my friend, Kristi's xanga: www.xanga.com/bellewooten and read what she wrote about me tonight (Sun. Oct 10)... here's someone that truly knows and understands and appreciates me for who I am... love you, babe!

And - interesting... with the site tracker reader thingy I have, I can see from which domain people are coming ... and today I had 3 visits from 'terranova.net'... isn't that Brian McLaren's stuff??
