Two are better than one?

It amazes me how even when your life is so full of things to do, people to see and places to go, we can still feel an emptiness inside. What is it that makes life feel full? When you feel the most complete is it after an event, a moment with someone or just time alone?

I'm a people person. I love being around people and building friendships. I am starting to believe that it may almost be to my detriment. You see, I grew up an only child. I had to love spending time with myself and finding contentment in my private time. Now, I enjoy having moments alone but I'd rather spend some QT time with a friend or two. The problem with this is that seasons of life change and your friends do too. So what your friendships may have looked like in January could be a little different by the time May hits. Isn't that crazy? It is but it's so true.

So what do you do? You could spin your wheels trying to make things happen or you can get back to that one friend that isn't seasonal even if you treat Him that way at times. Really God and family are the most substantial relationships any of us have. They are always here to keep us grounded and centered on what really matters. We had some good family time to keep me grounded this week with campaigning, a birthday celebration and a lazy Sunday.

 Oops, something went wrong. At this point I wasn't so thrilled.

For the man of the house. Turned out cute, huh? Tastes yummy!

She came up with this slogan on her own. I love it!

This is the kids building a Star Wars Spaceship. This went on all day. They had hammers, nails, markers and spray paint. It was great to hear them working and fighting together to get this one thing accomplished.

All in all, the bible does say that "two are better than one". However, if you're having a hard time getting the two together just remember that the "One" is more than enough.
