Kelly broke up with her boyfriend at the end of the week at EFY. Naturally, she's sad, but I have been so impressed with her wisdom through this. Comments like, "It's really for the best. I shouldn't have to feel like I'm walking on eggshells." Another: "I could sense it coming, and even though it hurts, I'm kind of relieved, too." And I particularly liked this one: "I really need a mormon boy."
There have been tears and anger. But I know she is a strong young lady, and she'll get through this. I've seen the wisdom of our church leaders in encouraging youth to date many people, not just one. She told me she's glad it happened during EFY week because it made it easier.
I also heard that another person I know whose ink wasn't even completely dry on her divorce decree was recently married. Some people find love and relationships so easily. I'm almost to the point where I just write that hope off of my list.
So in the interim, I'm just keeping myself busy. I've been doing research on some business ideas I have. I'm trying to get some things going that will generate an income so that I can finish my degree. Good news arrived in the mail yesterday...CSU Fresno approved my financial aid appeal. Still, the only aid they gave me is loans, so I need to find other financial resources to get through the next 8 months and beyond.
And I know God loves me. He keeps sending giggles my way to cheer my heart. Like the other day, just down the street from me, I was waiting (alone) at a stop sign. I saw a little bird chasing a big squirrel (at ground level) and pecking at his tail, and the squirrel kept turning around chittering at the bird as they crossed the street. Where is a camera when you need one!
