Life These Days

November 2006
It's weird, this blogging thing. I sit here at the computer, late at night, and get to know people. People I see almost every day, but rarely, if ever take the time to really talk to. And I read their blogs and think...Gee, this person's really neat. I wish I knew him or her better. And I wonder...do people think the same about me? Do they look at me and see a person, or do they look at me and see a wife, mom, and student? Do people think that just because I am in a different season of my life now than they might be, we would have nothing in common? I'm grateful for people like Meg, Rachel, Griselda, Lizzie, Rob, Kate, Chris, Kathryn, and all the others who don't let our different ages, stages, or contexts separate us. I will leave CTS with many friends, but will have missed out on so many as well, just because our paths don't cross at the right time of day or our lives are "too different." But really...are they?
