So Happy

I don't know if you have ever felt down and in the "pits" one moment and than the next feel completey happy and alive. I have had that experience recently. During summer semester I had a hard time. I was sad, lonely, stressed and just trying to get back into the swing of life. I had a hard transition, and it didn't help that I didn't have a lot in common with my roommates. It was a hard time for me. I prayed so much and so long with lots of tears shed, hoping someone heard me. I just moved a week ago to a new apt complex and it is a complete night to day difference. The people here are so much more friendly and invovle you in the activities going on. I have one roommate as of now and we get along great. Her name is Brittany and we do everything together - we play tennis, go on nightly walks, watch movies, play games, talk, laugh and just have fun chilling. Our interest are so similar which makes it easy for us to have fun together. I feel it is important to reach those dark, hard moments so that when we are lifted up we appreciate the better times more and realize the blessings we do have. I feel so much happier now and alive. I'm doing so great and I'm excited for what next semester brings.
