Let This Old Life Crumble...

Yesterday Amy and I went to Springfield, IL for a Natalie Grant/Jeremy Camp concert.  It was amazing.  I felt more alive there than I had since Urbana.  I felt like Amy and I really had a time to connect and that it brought us closer together.  We both understand the other so well.  Wether or not we actually hang out a lot.  We will always be able to ask, "Is he veg?" and know that the other one is in sink and excited for us but able to say it in our own special way.  We drove 4 hours both ways in one day for this concert and didn't get adequate sleep because of it.  We got back at 3 am.  Now I am taking part in Winter Conference all day and we are now on a break so I will probably take a good long nap here soon.  I have 3 girls from University of Wisconsin Whitewater staying in my room and they are all very nice.  One of them is a super senior and she studied abroad in Ireland originally for a year but she ended up staying there for an extra 8 months because she loved it so much.  I can see myself doing that with France next year.  I know I am going to fall in love with it and not want to leave.  We had break out sessions this morning in the conference and I went to one on lust which ended up being mainly about sexual addiction and I ended up deciding that I should have gone to a different one.  The other one I went to was on singleness and I realized that I have been flirting with guys in ways that are harmful to my relationships with them. I need to honor God, myself and them in the whole of the relationship.  There was so much good about this session that I have no idea where to begin in it and I want to continue to pursue this topic in the future making myself strong enough to be single for as long as God wants me to be.
