Loneliness is something I have dealt with since I graduated from MVNU. I left an environment where I was surrounded by an incredible group of friends who had become closer than family during our time together there, and moved to Bowling Green, OH where I knew absolutely no one. I haven't developed friendships like those since then. I've gotten used to this for the most part, some days I ache for Becky or my other relationships from college, but I've adapted. Then last week we headed back to MVNU. It must be something about that campus. At assessment we developed a bond with the other canidates in three short days. We cried together, prayed together, and laughed more than I have laughed in a long time. And as odd as it sounds, I miss those people. The ache for Christ-centered friendships in my life is back and it hurts. Some friends from assessment are praying about possibly joining us here in Columbus. There is nothing that would make me happier right now. The thought of having a team here in Grandview that would do church together is a beautiful thought.
