In the Library.....

Jason and I are at the library right now. I'm sitting next to him and he's plucking away at the computer, distraught over a huge presentation he has due tomorrow. Watching him stress out makes me happy I'm done with school and yet sad that he's frazzled. Soon it'll be over. Soon he'll graduate. And soon we'll have "normal" lives. Maybe.... I've often wondered if we're capable of having "normal" lives and I've wondered even more whether or not we'd ever want a "normal" life.

----------------------------------------
It's difficult to focus my thoughts since the longer I sit here the more I notice a headache coming on. These flourescent lights.... who invented them? Is it just me or do they cause anyone else headaches? The computer screen must be full of them and I'm certain the overhanging lights are flourescent bulbs hiding under glass globes.
----------------------------------------

I don't have a huge agenda of things to get done while being here at the library but I did want to read some. I brought the book "The Shack" since I've heard it's good. So far I've read a few chapters but had hoped to read a couple more tonight. I also brought the "Morning and Evening" Devotional by Charles H. Spurgeon. His devotionals are encouraging and compel me to live passionately for my God. I do randomly post some of his devotionals- those the Holy Spirit uses to speak to my heart. So if you're ever wondering how Spring became so "smart-sounding," you may not be suprised to find out it's not me. It's Charles Spurgeon. I love how he words things- so straightforward and passionately.

Alright I'm signing off so I can read in the library next to my stressed out husband.

I've never read Charles Spurgeon, but I should. Yes, I'm back. I'd LOVE to get together with you guys sometime and catch up. See you Sunday?
