I moved house.
Again
This seems a good fit.
But I am a bit lonely and finding my way back to quiet moments and bent pages; away from television and endless circular conversation.
My flat mate is nice, Mexican, and beautiful really.
I hope to be a help to her, eventually, after the shock wears down and the air thins.
I miss my friends, So Young and Godwin who left me here.
I just miss them.
Found the Narnia books, all of them, in a little shelf in the room I took.
Have begun there and love the place thus far.
He writes much like someone else I know (but I am afraid to admit it).
love Him.
And He is always faithful, I can see that now.
Even when it seems that He is not.
I have a bucket of beef soaking in rice wine and soy sauce to get to.

Boxes, Bags and teddy bears
Packing does something to you, or to me, I should say.
I have all these…things and papers and…
I can see very clearly where I have missed…
chances.
Last night all seemed lost to me and I told my Friend about it, I told Him so honestly that others might mock but He heard me and He did not mock. His silence felt like blankets that warm in the cold of winter.
This morning I was praying for the day with Faby and Brandon and there I met the God of new days and bright beginnings
There is a man walking past the alley now, calling out, calling out to buy and sell. His tones are accurate and his rhythm exact and his call sounds strangely soothing to me now.
I wonder what it will be like to live anywhere but here.
How can I just simply walk away? I ask Him. And He says in return, “Its just a little while.” And I know this may mean five weeks or five hundred years and somehow it is all the same thing, now, and I am alright.
H mm, Enough.
Gill, I pray for you friend, be careful and let our Friend carry the burdens you see and find there. Peace,

Thanks Luke for the surprise. You are a great friend.
Godwin
I want to write something beautiful for my friend.
I should tell you all about him.
He is kind and patient and lovely.
He is the type of person that you feel like you can never get to know, you may spend days, hours, weeks and months with him and you never feel you will get past the smile and jokes and then one day something happens.
One day you sit down to have tea or coffee or rice and Kim Chi and you realize that you have a friend and its a good and deep relationship.
That is how it was for me with Godwin, one day, someone fun, a somewhat superficial relationship and then the next day, some great friend who cares and listens and speaks great wisdom.
I will miss you Godwin, you have been such a great friend to me
and I love you man. This was not as beautiful as I had hoped Godwindaaaw, but it is so very sincere and heartfelt.
Love, tina
PS
I will take care of…
