Tonight as Stephanie leaves my house, with a bag of Mylah's old clothes, small Little Baby toys and a big Fish Rocking horse thingy... I realized that God put Stephanie in my life, for me to love on her. Stephanie tonight opened up to me with her soul and by the time she left my house... she gave me the biggest hug and said, "I never met anyone like you!" I could of told her that.... in our introductions!!!! No one has ever met someone like me... just ask my mama or Nikki. they'll tell you that.

So when Stephanie leaves... I do my normal, pray for that friend and ask God for the guidance in that relationship. I believe with all my heart, that God sends you certain people in your life to learn from, to love on and most of the time... to show you, who you really are! I learn more about myself everyday with the people God places in my life each day... just yesterday... I realized with a patient that was a little - okay little is pushing it - a complete A-hole... that even my smile sometimes can't hide everything and it sure can't stop my mouth from speaking German! Which after the fact, I made it appoint to have that patient all day, to learn patience and love. After two hours and a lot of smiles and "Yes sirs'"... we made a compromise... I would speak only when spoken too and he would hold back all his profanity and mean comments! That was a hard lesson but helped me learn to pray in German.

Then my amazing girlfriends, they don't know this but those emails mails they send me all the time...those little notes get saved in a little folder to be scrapbooked with their pictures later. My friends mean the world to me, but it took the last few months of God showing and teaching me... "this is how I want you to love them!" I am so grateful for so much and Stephanies's hug tonight! Her Bear Hug and tears of happiness... made me realize, Stephanie is in my life for good. God has placed her on my path to Him, so I get to congo-line it with her down the road of life! Man... my congo line is getting big but I am loving it and feeling very blessed.
