If anyone could relate and hold your hand and not be a judge-r, that would have been me. Jus' saying.<br /><br />2. Assuaging your fears: I understand. I've known. Disappointment is a lie you are placing upon me. Of course. I don't have any, but you're a rockstar so... duh. No, I can't. Well, you didn't so this one doesn't REALLY apply...<br /><br />3. I've always loved you and somehow, some way I saw this. A long, long time ago. There was a day far off in the mists of memory when I came to your house... I don't even remember why or where... but I did. You were just back from your mish? I don't even remember. This was way Pre-Chris. But I saw it then. And I hoped quietly you'd find the strength in you to grapple that honesty and confront it. I didn't say anything then (or thereafter) because I wasn't sure how to broach that other than silently encouraging you from my silent vantage point. Glad we don't have to hide our secrets anymore. <br /><br />4. Love your guts. <br /><br />5. I'm still a little offended. :PDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17072933336481450048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5823271868222626382.post-12727796267080166412010-01-09T15:21:02.429-07:002010-01-09T15:21:02.429-07:00Randi!! Or should I say RADni? Because you and Chr...Randi!! Or should I say RADni? Because you and Chris truly are some RAD people. I'm glad I found your blog, thanks to Facebook! And I'm stoked that you guys are serious about making it all work in your life. The good stuff is out there! I know you'll find it!<br /><br />Being raised in the Church myself, I can totally relate to what you're talking about. I took so much for granted as a kid, that I never made an effort to take that spiritual journey for myself. It hasn't been until very recently (like this past year, post-Impact) that I decided to really get in touch with my Creator and figure out just what it was He had in store for me. The result: my life is the fullest and happiest and most exciting it has ever been! I am full of gratitude each and every day, and I know that this is the way life was meant to be lived!<br /><br />I love my parents for teaching me what they did, and for instilling in me habits and behaviors that have led me to be the man I am today, even when I didn't fully appreciate or understand them growing up. If you're open to some feedback, I'd like to offer 2 things that really assisted me:<br />1. Be honest with the answers you receive, however they come. You will know if they are right as long as your searching is sincere. <br />2. Be willing to trust your Creator enough to let His will take precedence over your own. This has nothing to do with religion. It's much bigger than that. He knows things that only He knows, and if it's our long-term joy that He's working for, I'm sure He'll lead us to it. We just have to be humble enough sometimes to follow without knowing all the details.<br /><br />Again, great to read your blog! Love you guys! Oh, how's the music going? I still have your CD in my car...

Not many people have the courage to look within and really question if the beliefs they hold or have been taught to hold are truly useful for them or not. Change is hard and never ending. To be a person who embraces the questions the grey area can be rewarding...I find it is. I never feel unfulfilled I feel challenged and excited to learn. My beliefs have changed radically from those I held growing up and will continue to change and evolve. We all have our own truths. And you will know them when you feel them, go with your gut not your fear, trust your experiences, yourself. Fear rarely leads us the right way...unless you are being chased by a tiger. Maybe then. If you ever want to talk...xoxo...double duh!<br />Validation COMPLETE.<br /><br />Gwen Bot.kittymodernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10610262703180179207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5823271868222626382.post-35983042627554176012010-01-07T20:20:04.663-07:002010-01-07T20:20:04.663-07:00Randi,

I understand what you are going through, and glad we had a chance to talk about Utah during our wonderful experience. Just be yourself and you will find out who you are and God doesn't care about what religion you chose, only that you love him and he loves you. <br /><br />Your beautiful, hope we can cross paths again some day.

I'm glad that you know God exists and I hope that your journey will take you towards Christ and his teachings. I know that spiritual journeys never end but that peace can be found along the way as long as you are going in the right direction.<br /><br />I will love you forever and for always...<br /><br />xoxojessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01153179191440308985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5823271868222626382.post-79958944217541179192010-01-06T06:50:38.072-07:002010-01-06T06:50:38.072-07:00Good for you little buddy.

I jumped online and for some reason typed your blog in the address box. And earlier tonight at Sam's club I was talking about you with Paul, nothing serious, just about living with you and missing you and you bringing DVR into my life. <br /><br />Anyway, I love you. I'm proud of you. I'll be praying for you and the things you desire. When my journey began a couple years ago it was so scary. The good news is that it gets better, the bad news is that it will probably never end, which now that I think about it, is also good news. Oh and did I mention that I love you? <br /><br />Thanks for sharing this post, and for being brave, and for being you. My friends who just got married in October have a little thing hanging in their house, its the letters, "UBU". I love it because we all need that reminder, You Be You.<br /><br />You're going to be just fine Diz.
