What is that bible verse about trusting God and not your gut? You know the one ... it's something to do with the fact that emotions are fallible, but God's truth is something that you can believe in, even when you don't feel it....
Anyways, I think it's that way with relationships too. I've been incredibly stressed out lately, what with school and work stress. Every time I'm way-stressed at work, I start to think that something is wrong with my relationship with Othello. Even when he reassures me that things have never been better, I get all "jiggy" (his words) about us.
Those words - the ones that are escaping me, but their thoughts do not - have been immensely comforting to me these past few days, as I hold concerns about who I am and where I am headed. The fact is... I'm the same girl as ever... and the same circumstances behold me as always.
Othello is a total gem - especially when I'm too busy for everything. He did my laundry last week and cooked for us several times. I need to get used to the fact that even though we're not offically partners ... he's my partner and I look to him for support and friendship and love. It's nice.
