I really care about you, now I must throw up

Having reread last evening's melodramtic post, I feel compelled to write an addendum. Granted, all of the details were true, but you must be aware that it's merely part of the story. Some of what happens between a girl and a boy, friends or something more, is a sacred trust that must be protected from the blogosphere.

That said, let me say thanks to all of you for your supportive phone calls, texts and e-mails (hooray, technology!). No, things didn't exactly work out according to plan, but I'm not sad. At least not about that.

Sometimes, the "yes or no" boxes on the love note must remain unchecked. Instead, you end up with a relationship that, although not exactly defined, emerges stronger than most every other relationship you've ever had.

Sometimes you must allow God to do His work, in His time, know that you're in someone's life for a reason, and that all things work together for His good, even when you can't see it.

Because, after all, truly caring about someone means putting their needs first, even if you have to ignore your own. At least for now.
