simply complicated

YouthForChrist retreat...indescribable.
life-changing.
unexpected.
amazing.

i don't even know where to start. i came into that camp knowing only one person,
and by the end of two days, i had experienced so many laughs, highs, lows, tears, and made friendships that i am certain will last a very long time. i found out i can relate with these people more than i ever thought possible. they are absolutely hilarious, fun, talented, smart, and just plain good-hearted. the enviornment was warm and welcoming. i felt like i belonged. all of us were one, especially while singing. We all cried together, laughed together, sang together, worshipped God together.

I have never gotten so close to people in a span of two days, it's unbelievable.
God brings people together in incredible ways.

there is more to life than school and boys. MUCH more. i just wish more people realized that.

single most amazing experience in my life.

i learned so much. to not be ashamed. to love. to know i am never alone. to know i am forgiven. i received the holy spirit, and the feeling was amazing. my body was shaking, as my body was cleansed. i am a new person, with a clean slate. and i have a new family now, with amazing people <3 YOUTH FOR CHRIST.

this type of high totallyy beats out anything drugs, alcohol, or cutting can do. it's exactly what i needed in my life.
i don't think i have really lived until this weekend.

it's so difficult to find the right words to write on here, because the experience was just...wow.
it was so emotional to the point that i almost ran out of tears. and not because i was sad...the complete opposite, actually (:
