Late Thoughts.

It's late and I should be in bed right now, especially after the long weekend that I've had. But yet here I am sitting on my $15 couch I bought at Savers in my little apartment thinking. I'm always thinking. Tonight I had a discussion with a few people about well, life I guess. At least many factors dealing with life, dating, marriage, communication, justice, mercy, wants, needs, gospel subjects, leaders, agency, the list goes on. It was a discussion I started. I had a question, a comment a need to get something out and get opinions, and as I did I realized some things....I shouldn't ask for opinions haha. I value others opinions immensely, and I love hearing what people have to say. Most of the time I have already thought about it, or have come to the same conclusion, but I feel as though I need to hear it from others. Usually I'll add comments or questions just to keep it going and see what people say. I want to see how they come up with an answer, or back up a statement. I love seeing the differences in people, even if at the same time I'm frustrated by it.
Sometimes at the end of these discussions I feel as though people look at me in a different way, and I kinda like that. I like for them to see different sides of me, to realize I don't necessarily fit the mold they have put me in. I like keeping people on their toes about me. I am a box of chocolates, ya never know what you're gonna get. Well ya never know what I'm going to say or how I will say it. It certainly makes life more entertaining.
By the end of this talk, I honestly must say that I have felt enlightened by the whole thing, but I'm still int he same mindset from the beginning. Although it hasn't changed my initial answer to my question, I feel that I gained something, I gained a deeper connection with my friends and people. And as I sit here, knowing I should have been in bed an hour or so ago, I continue to sit, and type and let my thoughts fly about until they are too tired and they need a rest.
It's late and finally my thoughts are beginning to cease and in fact I'm not sure how much sense this blog makes, but I made it, and it's out there for me to remember this moment and how I was able to clear my thoughts for once in my life.
