Friend from my past

I got onto facebook tonight where I had a friend request from my best friend in high school, Laura Mac. (Thats what I call her) My mind was flooded with emotion because of seeing her picture. I went onto her page and looked at her pictures from high school. I began to cry remembering what my friendship was like with her. Mac will tell you her story but I can give you a blurb. We became close friends my senior year of high school and she started hanging out with me and my community. Her life changed and the love she had for the world was channeled through her conversation with the Lord. I saw the pictures and was reminded how beautiful it was to watch her transform in front of me. I remember seeing God so clearly in my life and knowing how real He was because of the transformation that I saw in Mac. We have known each other for 6 and a half years now and we are still as close. We could pick up the phone tomorrow and understand each other but there is still something that I regret with Mac. I have not stayed as closely connected with her as I wished I had. If you could ever meet her you would understand why, her radiance, love for people. her ability to listen and love so well is amazing. She has a pure love for the world and people. She does not have agendas that are hidden and she really loves all people.

Mac came to Charlotte a lot to stay with us because she lives in Virgina now. My favorite time that came was when she brought Owen. Owen was a guy that she met in Lynchburg who was semi homeless, more or less he hopped trains and ended up in Virgina. Lucky for him he met Mac. I remember thinking how crazy she was for bringing him with her because she had no clue who he was but I also remember loving her more when she told me about Owen. Again, she has a pure loves for the the world and people. She has the ability to look past what is in front her. She is hippy at heart. I love her dearly and am going to try my best to stay more closely connected with her.
