Pre-Valentines Rambling

Three more days till Valentine's, the day of hearts and chocolates and roses. I'm very mildly surprised that I'm not griping about the fact that I haven't made much progress in the Romance Department since Kindergarten.

As I said, it doesn't bother me much. I'm glad.

I don't know how I'll feel in the next few days. Maybe that touch of melancholia will visit me again. Maybe I'll pine for that someone I've never met again. But for now, I'm content with the way things are.

I've given my heart in Jesus's keeping. I'm pretty sure He'll know what to do with it.

But being me, it can't be helped that more often than not, I'd rather have things my own way. So it can be rough sailing most of the time.

It so happens that Valentine's Day falls on a Saturday. And for the next few months, there'll always be one person I'll look forward to seeing again. My Shepherd Boy.

So really. I don't know how I'll feel this Valentine's.

Last Saturday was rather heart-rending and I don't know if this Saturday will be better. But I'm healing well, ever since I offered my heart in Jesus's keeping. And whatever it is that I felt for him... it's fading.

So I trust that all will end well.
