well. famous people are dying. what’s the deal? too ridiculous.
so here is a short update on my life. so much truly has happened since my last informational post.
i turned 21 years old on the 16th. had such a good day on my own at home and then had an incredible birthday party held at my work in the market. so many wonderful people came to celebrate with me. bukers, coworkers, hair stylists, old lady i met on the bus, musicians and bosses. what a good time.
then i walked out to my car to find nothing. no car. gone. stolen.
so last week i moved to the city into a house of guys i found on craigslist. one works for a carpet store. one installs things on yachts. and the last works with homeless youth. so diverse. everything’s been good so far. everyone has really different schedules so i hardly see them, which is a drag since it would be nice to kindof know the people who sleep in the house…
things are really good right now. i’m a real adult now. so scary but oh so good. i feel like my life has finally started. everything thing i’ve done in the past has just been preparation for this season i’m living now.
to tell you all the truth, inside my heart is really messy. things are getting more stable around me, but with the new stability it’s bringing up new deep emotions about things i never knew i “felt” anything about before. i can’t go into detail only because there really aren’t any. what was just stated is as far as i’ve even dared to go in this process.
danger bay.
but all is well.
ps. the lord is just wonderful. we’re in love more than ever i think.
done and done.

Hi Melodie,
Congratulations on reaching your 21st birthday! I have a son 23 and another who will turn 21 in October. Even though they snuck in places they shouldn’t have, turning 21 is still a big deal. Don’t be surprised by new thoughts and emotions. Some will be like Holy heck, I turned 21 and I’m just as immature as ever; others will be, Where am I going and what am I doing with my life? Or what have I learned and what do I offer the world? Those are all natural and good thoughts. The answers won’t all come right away, but when you ask, your higher self begins to work on the answers for you. Keep your faith and I wish you the best in all you do.
