Peanut butter and Jelly

Sometimes I wonder if I am making the best of my college experience. Truth be told I have met a lot of awesome people but I realize that I spend the majority of my time by myself. I come to realize that I don't have that "person." Before I got to college my friend told me that she can't wait to meet my future "soul mate." She didn't mean my a romantic partner but that person who will become my best friend throughout my college years. It didn't bother me much during my first two years of college that I didn't have that "person" because I guess I figured they would come along eventually. Also I had three best friends from high school and a "big sister" from childhood. But no matter how hard we try, the truth is time apart has made our friendships fade if not dissipate completely. It is a sad truth to admit.

Relationships change and I get that. But growing apart from people you care about reveals how much you truly love them and how much it sucks not to have them close anymore. There is always the assumption that we will catch up once again but it is wishful thinking.

And everyone else seems to have the peanut butter to their jelly. I know that I have that too. I have peanut butter, nutella, and bananas. But they are miles away and they have their own partners in crime.

I know that God is the foundation for all blessing and He is always consistent when everyone else is not, including myself. So I will learn to be satisfied and joyful in my relationship with Him.
