: : tonight was great! thanks for having us all over! i debated coming, since i was not rally wanting to do anything. and since i got home so late from work, but i'm glad i stopped in. whether any of you know it tonight my life had a fresh start. this has been a VERY HAPPY birthday for me. i ahve alot i could say but i won't. i'm just ready to start class! see ya, Bill
: It will be VERY cool seeing you there every week!!!
I am thrilled to death. You don't even know! It was all I could do to remain quiet and seated last night when all I wanted to do was explode! I have not felt this convinced about something since about 1998. If I am going into religious studies in the future, which is my current plan, I would really love to better round out my knowledge of my own faith and beliefs. I think hermeneutics would be a great place to start. I am ready. And thanks to Lane, it is a possibility. Also, about the party again--you all may not know it, but just being in your presence super-charged me again. Talking to Ant and Dave and Pete (Pete, let's get together sometime just you and me and you can talk about anything, and I'll shut up and listen) and also meeting Tim's step mother, and talking to Corey, Steph, Kim, Cari, Sali.....I mean it--I had been feeling so cut off from God, and I know why, it's because I lacked the body. This I don't blame myself for either. I know right now I'm where I need to be in my life. But, I had just prayed for God to reintegrate me and then Tim and Steph move here, Lane and I end up totally meshing last night and now I think I am getting into a singles group at my own church. I am really happy. Also, last night I felt the presence of God for the first time in months, literally. All I want to do is learn to be more greatful. Thanks guys for staying w me, even though I have been distant, and know that it is not a distance of the heart, just of circumstances.
With love, Bill
