I Want to Pull Myself Back Together
Journal entry 16- Strange Encounters
You shared your story with me about your girlfriend. Any questions I had you were happy to answer.
It was my first time with such an experience. I've always been the quiet observer in these situations. And now this time I was the one engaging.
You were homeless, and yet you fell in love with a girl who was going to take you in.
You had been going to the local library which is open to the public so that you could keep in contact. You already were having dates together. She was treating you to McDonalds.
You two lived quite a distance aways. But still she would drive to see you. She was young but she already got a house to rent for you two to live together. And you only had two more months to wait.
That library helped you keep in contact with her using an online chatroom site you had both agreed to use.
Her parents didn't like you because of your situation but she was fully in love.
Your entire attitude was nothing but positivity. You didn't mind being homeless. You were finding beauty in everything and I could understand how the person you were soon to marry had fallen for you.
You were a bit of light that made me gravitate towards some hope in this world. You made the world I was so scared of seem like a friendly stroll through the park.
You had friends, you had love, you had joy. Your situation didn't get you down. You weren't sitting around on a corner complaining about life being hell or pointless. Saying that nothing can fix it.
You simply had stories about all your experiences, and they were all amusing ones as well. I enjoy meeting people like you. I need to meet more soon, and maybe something will change.
