I have to say…I am a fan of “soul friends.” I mean, who isn’t, right?
Today after class (which was ERI test #2 of 3! and a study session for the final) I got a brief moment to talk with a woman who I consider to be a soul friend: Jessica Bowman :) Seriously, it’s a God thing. We got to talking and I realized that this ALWAYS happens. We start talking on our way out of class, and then keep talking for a good twenty minutes about: life, relationships, trusting in God, nursing school, and being women who want to love the men we’re dating in new and better ways. It’s so good! There is a down side though. We always say we’re going to do something “normal” (like out to coffee, etc.) as friends, but never do. I am hoping that our boyfriends living in the same apartment will change that. If not, at least the four of us will be able to spend time together :)
Also, there is Kate. Sometimes she calls herself “Schmate.” We met through a lovely mutual friend, Erin. These are friends that I call “Canby” friends. A lovely town I like to think of as having cows, but not smelling like it. Anyway, Kate and I are soul friends…for sure. I am certain that our lengthy talks as we close down the Washington Square Mall are signs of that :) I miss our talks…and really hope this summer we can spend more time together!
Finally, I am realizing that my biggest soul friend is God. A relationship that I can say I have neglected more than all the other recently. Thus, I am closing this and want to return to my biggest fan, and become more of His biggest fan.
I hope you enojy your soul friend time :) I know I have many others…maybe I’ll do a little bloggity about a few more! I love sequels!
