I guess brokenhearted may be a little dramatic of me, but I am truly struggling with feelings of longing for BA and my friends. While I have truly been making an effort spiritually, physically, and mentally, emotionally I am stuck in Brokenheartsville :( missing everything and everyone from our past life, not to mention bad things with Jim. I'm not really sure how I felt about him in the first place...lots of confused emotions, but it turns out (as Becca helped me see) that he is just to insecure and not strong enough of a man for me. He is REALLY stuck in the past and not able to see a future with me - even as friends I'm afraid. I found a great verse today that I wanted to share with you guys in case you ever feel this way too:
Psalm 34:18
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted, and he saves those whose spirits have been crushed.
WOW. Aren't we lucky? The psalm continues on to say:
19-22
People who do what is right may have many problems, but the Lord will solve them all. He will protect their very bones; not one of them will be broken. Evil will kill the wicked; those who hate good people will be judged guilty. But the Lord saves his servant' lives; no one who trusts him will be judged guilty.
I am praying for you girls...I miss you so much.
Love, Amanda

I could have used this message in Buenos Aires!! And Becca too, I think! Amanda--you definitely have a flair for writing--you are incredible!! I miss you girls tons, and just between us, I'll probably be needing this message again within the next couple of weeks--I am totally falling for Travis (for the 4th time since 8th grade) and I know it won't go anywhere (mainly because I won't let it). So...yah, its kind of frustrating! But I love you both--and I can't wait to see you soon (I HOPE!!). Oh, and, I'm getting 2 new tattoos in the next week--I'll take pics of them and send them to you for sure!!
