It is a blessing to be a blessing

I know the joys of daily fellowship and the dryness of being absolutely stripped of it.

When I start working every other weekend, I need to prioritize my time so that I stay physically, spiritually, mentally, and emotionally stable. 

Distance is a killer, but I am continually learning to love others from afar. It is only then when you realize whether or not you want to put in the effort to maintain that relationship. I want to be an encouragement, not just a brief conversation in the passing. But when we are together, it's like nothing changed. Woe is me who dwells on the housing days when I could just spontaneously hangout and chat.
