(I thought I had better comment quickly before the cold medicine wears completely off and you edit your blog.)<BR/><BR/>Vincent Van Gogh said, "There may be a great fire in our hearts, yet no one ever comes to warm himself at it, and the passers-by see only a wisp of smoke." <BR/><BR/>Truly, this is not the case with you, my gluten-free friend. Your passion for life in Christ is evident in the words you so beautifully write. Thanks for infecting us with your love for life and passion for community in the Body.<BR/><BR/>You are the light of the world!23 degreeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15269271075086462618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064478678164369045.post-9710617864628505102008-01-16T16:23:00.000-05:002008-01-16T16:23:00.000-05:00Aww...I feel all warm and fuzzy.

I'm glad you made it so long without being hit! But it fooled me, too -- I just thought Crescenet was not too good with grammar, perhaps English not their first language. :)christiannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278757714101308785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064478678164369045.post-37726731543427482892008-01-16T11:27:00.000-05:002008-01-16T11:27:00.000-05:00Nathan.

This is why you make my day: you have a way of illustrating my thoughts with your own words that gets to the very core of what I was meaning to say all along (case in point: your first comment on my Cloud blog). I definitely had you in mind when I wrote: "It is utterly disarming to be confronted with the reality that someone else has shared your doubts, fears, questions, and not only doesn't judge you or look down on you for it, but offers ways of looking at at the whole sweep of things that you hadn't thought of before." Yes, you and Terri and Christianne et al ... you are my well-stoked fireplace, too.<BR/><BR/>Terri & I keep scratching our heads. Our paths intersected less than a month ago & at the risk of sounding cliche, I feel like I've known her forever. That's how all of this is beginning to feel, like we all already know each other somehow. <BR/><BR/>No need to explain it or figure it out; I'm just grateful for the steady warmth it provides.<BR/><BR/>Chrisitanne. Dear girl. I think a whole lengthy volume about you could not do justice to what warmth & love you have brought my way. To borrow Terri's words, I've hit the big love jackpot!! Love to you!!<BR/><BR/>Greg - I am so excited for the Florida trip! Thanks for the well-wishes. :o)<BR/><BR/>Terri - I can blame my inability to recognize spam on the fact that I woke up choking on my own phlegm at about 3:30 in the morning. Can't believe I said welcome to a spammer. And I do not love word verification, but if I must, I must. *Sigh*<BR/><BR/>Aw look.

I've seen that same exact comment all over the place. If you add that letter-recognition feature to your comments it will prevent those in the future. "this post is likeable???" PLEASE!

Once I get a chance to collect my thoughts on this wonderful award and the one about ROAR-ing. :)<BR/><BR/>My words in this small comment box will in no way do justice to my feelings of re-finding you and knowing you. We never knew each other this way in college! So this is a sweet, sweet gift of the most unexpected kind, this past year of truly knowing you. <BR/><BR/>Can't wait to know you in a third dimension in LESS THAN two weeks' time!<BR/><BR/>And, I can't resist shouting this one out loud: HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY, BEAUTIFUL GIRL!!!<BR/><BR/>Been meaning to ask after your plans for this Big Day.
