Dresses

Sometimes life can be full of surprises. I have been surprised by 3 very special people over the last six weeks. I would not trade the time I've had with them for anything in the world.

They will always have a very special place in my heart, and now as things come to a close I see my life coming back into it's normal existence. Although I am sad they are all leaving, I am looking forward to the routine I once had.

Having such a short time with them makes it all that much more special to me, because you can have too much of a good thing. It's like owning your favorite dress that you only wear on special occasions - you cherish the dress, you wrap it in tissue and keep it in a special box hidden away and bring it out only when it truly matters.

Anyway, to the three of you (you know who you are), thank you so much for gracing me with your beautiful, individual personalities. I love each one of you, and today I'm putting my "special dress" back in it's box. I hope that one day, I'll be able to bring it out again.

the people we meet will always leave impressions on us. i'm so glad you had a good experience! i think the people we meet are just one of God's ways that He shows how much He cares for us...it's up to us to accept the challenge.
