Disappointment and new friendships

i found out about something today that left me feeling down. sometimes it seems like no matter what lengths i go to, for some it will never be enough. while i know in my heart that i'm not on this earth for me, but as part of a bigger story, i'm still human. and humans have a tendency to let other humans down. i should know this by now. but knowing this in my head and having it in my heart are two different things. i know in my head that in comparison to eternity, this is a speck of dust. but in my heart, i feel that i'm always an advocate for everyone else, but when i need that, no one's there.

on a more positive note, my church's ladies ministry group heart2heart met tonight to play bunco. i enjoyed spending time with women of all ages and all walks of life. we had so much fun and i was able to make many new friends. the excitement that some of the women got when they rolled a bunco was so contagious. however, i seemed to have caught the losing bug. it was fun all the same. i'm so glad that this group has started and that we have such a great interest in getting to know each other and bonding together. i feel like there is so much i can learn from these Godly women.
