The past week was the most wonderful, challenging, heart-breaking, discouraging, encouraging, random, planned, spontaneous, restrictive, freeing, and incredible week of my life.
Life is going to keep rolling, but I will hold those faces and places in my heart for the rest of my life.
I never knew that letting go of that week would be that difficult. The last night was every emotion at once. Truly, every emotion in one. The top two were heartbreak and ecstasy. Weird combo, huh?
I had to let go of people. One in particular.
I gained people and found out some things that I never knew.
June 27-July 4, 2009 will forever be etched in my memory as my last week of anything resembling childhood. My eyes and hearts have been opened.
I will hope for you.
I will pray for you.
I will love you all for the rest of my lives.
Raise up your heads, oh gates, so that the Lord of Glory may come in.
