So, I posted the ... post... called Depths of Despair. If you haven't read it, stop right now and go to it. I gave the link with the title, so click it. Go. Now.
Okay, now that everyone is all caught up... I want to further catch you up. I've been at camp for a week, as I'd mentioned, and something beautiful happened there.
It's been unbearably windy here, and for the most part it was frustrating. We couldn't do most of those camp things like tubing, knee-boarding, skiing, boating, for the wind made the waves dangerous. However, it made it wonderful for sunbathing, as the wind cooled your skin before you became uncomfortable. My best friend and I were on the dock doing just that, having a beautifully in-depth conversation. Someone must have called us or something, because the next thing I really remember clearly is getting up and walking off. She ran ahead of me because that is the way she is, and I paused for some reason. All of a sudden, the wind just picked up. Ever so gently it tousled my hair, sending it curling around my neck and goosebumps down my spine. I took a deep breath in and looked up to the sky, which looked more like the heavens, and I felt this amazing sort of happiness which wrapped around my heart and made me want to just sing; a sort of 'inexplicable joy'.
My prayers... Thank you God, thank you for making me happy.
He truly works miracles. I feel joy that makes me cry. I am finally at peace with myself.
A note, though: I'm still fighting it. I just have to fight it less.
