I am Loved

So many people visiting me despite moving to a new city. I am glad, as I'm a people person, I don't do well moving to new places and having to make new friends and to support them.

K, A, and R decided to visit me in Chicago. It was fun going up and down the Magnificent Mile with them. I guess the best part was when we were on the seventh floor of the parking garage of the Navy Pier. We were looking out at the Chicago skyline when I touched a spider web with my left hand. There was no spider but I decided to check around to make sure. Only a foot away from my right hand was a black widow spider. Then we started to notice more. Many black widow spiders lined the walls and air conditioning units. Moment ruined. It was this time of valley of shadow and death where K decided to pray for me, that I would find a new fellowship, that I could come to like Chicago, and that I would strive towards God and find His plan for me in the city. It was a truly wonderful experience. I had to crawl back to the elevator as the inside of the seventh floor was also plagued with many spiders hanging from the ceiling and walls. Still, worth it.

More and more people are coming to visit me too. Had I made such a difference in other people's lives? Aren't I just known as the "knowledgeable one?" Or am I someone, something more?

I am loved, even if I lie to myself that I don't have what others have. F*** social media.

Wow even more people are visiting me. First Joe from GCF, then Chris from KC, even Kelly has decided to visit (though the trip is probably mostly to visit his GF, at least this time it won't be an accidental third wheeling, and I believe his sincerity). Can't wait for Val to visit too.
