Saturday

It's my favorite day of the week.
                           - F

I spent today in the city with a "new" friend.  Back in the bay and in a new life stage: mine-ish.  We made plans, and in a enjoyable way, God remade those plans.

Basic in nature but ordained in matter.

Portions of the day we shared about different areas of our life while apart either by time or distance: work, a new home, food, Christian living, logistics, young adult living, Bible reading, fashion, food, family, summer, church away from church, and enjoying the plans we had made in the future.  Common in nature but ordained in matter.

F is afraid of infinite (potential to choke (taken out of context)).  [N]ostalgia is returning to where my PawPaw taught me how to count to 8 in Cantonese and where my sister found her wedge Toms.  Change in season changes how fond I am of a built-up memory.  Different styles trying to influence each other.  Finding joy in your own style.  This dress, these shoes, that freddo brought to you by gift cards.

C: Oh! *embarassed* I thought this was a Starbucks!
C: Can you make a good chai tea?
B: We can make whatever your heart desires

Old conversation revisited.  Flexibility vs. Calling- question of helping vs. hindering.  "Why not Sundays?  It's perfect!"  Feeling of being on the same page.  Feeling as though I am talking a lot about myself. Then I give a soapbox speech (Note to F: save this for a later date of young adulthood).  F's version of M'Cheyne.  More transition, ability to study effectively, logistics, and more healthy routine.
Finished our drinks but still thirsty.  At the well.

Are Trader Joe's and Whole Foods the same company? Regular retail beats bargain retail.
