Last night after wednesday evening church I ran over to a friend's house to pick up some art and talk business for a little while and then head off to accomplish great things with the remainder of the evening.
I ended up just sitting and talking and having tea for a time. It was great. I would often wonder when I was little how my mom and dad could have company over to the house and not do anything but sit there and gab. I don't anymore. I wish that I had realized at that age how truly enriching it is to know people and be involved in their lives. It is simply amazing that God has given us the ability to enjoy the company of our fellow man so deeply. All we did was talk about concerns, future plans, school, art, and other people. But somehow it was really neat.
Maybe I'm just a softy. But I think that it's permissible to put stock in the only lasting resource this planet has.

i still think you should've tried the chai...so much better than the apple. (did i just say that??) now i have to go come up with a decent comeback for ethan's comment on mine about the hot greasy turk. that boy.
sometimes it's like we are a people.. and we enjoy them.

*jazz is playing in the background...that has possibilities to turn anything one says into a sappy mess.*
