Early Saturday Morning
Hey, a little later on- but the same day with some different ideas.<\/p>\n
What if Erika is face value? I am placing this iceberg in accordance to her, thinking that I only see the tip. I think that’s the case, but what if its not the case? What if she isn’t at all what she seems, and only cares about pulling pranks and playing basketball? Would I be disappointed? I could still see Jesus in her eyes, her big brown eyes, and a smile that can lighten a kids face to an old mans heart. I need to view people in a different light regardless of any outcome.<\/p>\n
Lori called, I didn’t want to talk to her, I didn’t want to apologize, she started crying on the phone, she is 27 or 28 and she is crying over something as small as an argument as to why someone didn’t call. She gave my phone number out to Lisa (who I did not want having my number) so I told her to not do that again – and she kinda flipped out saying that I yelled at her and refused to call me. So it was a whole big deal out of nothing… and she doesn’t know if she is okay now – but she called me at 4am Arizona time, 3am my time – why would she call and expect me to be up? That’s just another thing.<\/p>\n
I just got done praying about patience before she called, and about all this stuff – I guess it could be seen as a test, or maybe a challenge. Either way.. I’m up for the challenge!<\/p>\n
