When you were a teenager, did you ever have those nights where you thought "Even if I get caught, this was so worth it!". I had that feeling tonight. Now, don't get me wrong....I wasn't doing anything where one might "catch me" in the act; all fun was God-glorifying and law-abiding, rest assured! It was just the "this is so worth it" part that fit so well. I was merely hanging with friends (bowling if you wanted the details) and enjoying deep conversation, but sometimes those deep conversations can be few and far between when it comes to the 20somethings of my generation. Thank God (seriously...) that I am surrounded by people with the depths of the heart of God, and the communication skills to express them!!!
Also, I love the excitement and thrill of getting to know new friends when you're comfortable enough that you can slip into an old-friend mentality.
Ecc. 4:9-10
Two are better than one, for they have a good return for their work.
If one falls down, the other can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him!

Let's Fall Inlove
So, I've followed Meyer as she follows Christ....and created a blog!
I'm not sure how long I'll be able to keep up with this, but I will try for now.
So, while my blog title may seem to be an invitation for a coffee date or something of the sort (don't get me started on coffee dates by the way, I started a whole facebook controversy over that idea!)...but rather the title was inspired by the jazz concert I attended last night. Often certain songs, movies, conversations and/or cozy days give me the feeling of being inlove. I felt this last night as I listened to romantic songs performed by a husband and wife. I walked away quite energetic and inspired. I adore the feeling of being inlove, even if its with no one in particular. Just...in love.
Today has been rainy, and to be honest I've been beyond pessimistic. A true Darlene Downer you could say, so I decided to remind myself daily with my blog of the overtaking joy coming from the gift of love. So, in the future, I'll post honestly and with many typo's I'm sure...but from it, I just want to be reminded of love :). Be it with the Lord, life, words or what have you. Let's take the good advice from my close friend Frank,
"Why go on stalling? I'm falling. Love is calling! Why be shy? Let's fall inlove!"
