I Fell In Love Yesterday

dana2day

I fell in love yesterday.  It was love at first sight.  He is quite handsome….dark hair, dark eyes.  Tall and lanky.   I can already tell he has a great personality.  People adore him.  When I spoke in hushed whispers for his ears only, telling him my name and that we would have great adventures together, he just smiled a knowing smile.  He felt the same way, I could tell.  He looked straight into my eyes, squeezed my finger and I’m pretty sure he winked at me.  I never thought I would be one of those women who would give their heart away to another so easily.  I did that once nearly twenty-nine years ago.  It was surprising then as well.   But this young man has stolen my heart with little effort.  He was so anxious to meet me that he arrived early.  How extraordinary!  Not just punctual, but early!  So welcome to our hearts, Samuel Eli Stringfellow.  You’re stirring things up already!  “Be strong and courageous, for the Lord is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9SAM

"About you"? It is hard to declare any one thing or even a few things that would be of any interest to anyone! I love God. I know that I am His child, and I waver between being totally overwhelmed with His love, grace and mercy in my life, to being overwhelmed with how fast life is passing and how bad a job I have done at living this life He has given me. I often wonder if anyone else is out there walking around trying to act normal (which, if I may insert here, is really a relative term to everyone...what is normal?). About me? I am complicated! I love God with all my heart and want to serve Him with all my heart and want to do something important with all my heart and yet, this life I live everyday, doesn't seem to line up with that. More than anything - I want to be a published writer. I want to have the time to go to places that are surrounded by the sound of crashing waves and breezes and just listen. Or, to sit on a deck of some remote cabin and listen to the whisper of God's voice in the trees. I wonder.....I wonder if those moments will ever come?

  1. I love this! There is no other feeling like being a Grandmother, especially for the first time. Welcome to the club Dana.
