Communication

"Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person having neither to weigh thoughts and measure words, but to pour them out just as they are-chaff and grain together-knowing that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away."

Yes, I have been wasting approximately the past, oh 2 and a 1/2 hours blog stalking people (my new favorite past time) and I found this quote which I instantly loved!

I have been learning that sometimes breakdowns are very therapeutic.

I like to keep things inside, and cry about it later, but it's been very nice to have people I love around me helping me know that it's ok to breakdown.

Karl has helped me a lot with this.

Even though I know how frustrating it is for him that I can't just let things out, he is patient.

I cried in front of him for the first time a few weeks ago and he just held me and let me cry.

I could probably count the people I've cried in front of (for matters not pertaining to things of a spiritual nature) on one hand.

I am thankful that I have him:)

He is becoming the person this quote describes for me and I love that! I am trying to do the same for him. (I'm a work in progress)

In other news....

My family is coming today!

Yep, the Anderson clan will be all together for the first time in quite awhile.

I AM PUMPED!

Yay for Friday!
