I think its time for me to have one of those friends that you know just fits like he/she was always intended for your company. I had one of those once. Its been a really long time. Maybe its just that my eyes are closed.
I read in my journal today:
He played a part of Richard G. Scott's talk for me. I distinctly remembered hearing it, though it was three or four years ago, at a CES Fireside back when those firesides were not intended for me. Elder Scott said that we are needed as honest political leaders, and lawyers and such...I remember it was at a time when I wanted to be a lawyer, but felt that I couldn't reconcile that profession with my role as a woman. But, I knew that for some reason, those words were meant for me.
Its neat to think that despite our never having met, we have that connection. We were both sitting there, in different parts of the world, listening to Elder Scott, thinking, "Man, this is meant for me."
...
Maybe, despite all the recovering I've done, my heart still needs an extra dose of something. Maybe, I haven't felt the despair, but I also have not exercised hope. I'll work on that. Its probably important, that in addition to telling myself that there's something more intended for me, that I actually believe it.

It's simple, but it's hard to do. Good for you, Beaver.
