Would you want me when I'm not myself?
Wait it out while I am someone else?
And I, in time, will come around.
I always do. For you.
...Suppose I say you're my saving grace.
-John Mayer
I guess with the year ending I'm realizing how much my life is impacted by the people with whom I spend my days. My best friends here at Loras. They are the people who want me when I'm not myself, the people who I can be me with, no matter who "me" is that day. And they are my saving graces when necessary. They challenge me to be a better person and give me the drive to be who God calls me to be. It's going to be weird not having some of them around this summer, and even weirder coming back next fall and having some of them gone for good. :( As Billy Joel would say, "and so it goes...", but I kind of would rather have it last a little while longer. It's going all too fast...
Elizabeth comes up on Thursday. I am elated. Cannot wait. Hurrah!!
Off to FOCUS Women's prayer night. Then Perkin's. For more late night banter over coffee.
Un cancion por el cafe:
Cafe, cafe, te quiero todo el dia,
Yo quiero que aumentar el cafe con crema,
Y con azucar para gustar mejor.
Cafe, cafe, bebida mas guapo,
Yo pensar mas profundo cuando yo bebo el cafe.
Yo estoy feliz, mas feliz, con el cafe.
Cafe, mi corazon esta llena de amor.
Te amo, cafe.
And the Babel Fish translation:
A song by coffee, coffee, I want all the day to you, I want that to add coffee with cream and sugar to please coffee, coffee better, drunk but handsome, I to think but deep when I drink coffee. I am happy, but happy, with coffee, my heart this flood of love. I love to you, coffee.
Yeah um....ideas on that one? Especially the drunk but handsome part? I am SURE I did not write that. It's a jest, I declare. Oh Babel Fish, you really got me this time. :)
Perhaps it is foreboding about my Spanish final tomorrow? Ay ay ay!
Pax et veritas, yo!
I heart Babel Fish.
