“Voice of Truth”

The title of this entry is the name of the song I’m listening to at the moment. It’s by a group called Casting Crowns.

I had an emotional meltdown yesterday evening. I miss the Youth Group at Magnolia. I miss Paul, our Youth Minister. I miss Justin. I miss home. Period. I don’t really cry around my family because they get emotional when I do and I really don’t want to burden them with that. So I cried in my room, holding my favorite stuffed animal, the sky outside growing dark. I don’t want pity. I just wanted to tell. This isn’t where I belong. In fact, I couldn’t feel any more unwelcome at the moment. It’s just not home. I want to go home. I may be having great fun but I just can’t escape the fact that this isn’t home.

Today James, Mom, and I walked to another shopping street. She took us to a bakery where James and I had breakfast. We shopped for a bit and then headed back. Once home, I completed my geometry assignment (yay!), yet I know I have a geometry project to do tonight (aw…). I’ll do it this afternoon so I can go to Hangin’ In with the youth group at our new Church.
