Fellowship

I just came back from a wedding for two friends from church, and man, I had a great time! If I ever needed a reminder as to why I enjoy taking pictures, tonight was a perfect example: a bunch of us career fellowship people (plus some from the college fellowship =)) just tore up the dance floor and had fun until the very end!

As I looked around at the smiling faces on the dance floor, that's when it hit me: that I truly felt comfortable around these people -- my brothers and sisters -- enough to dance and shake my thang like a polaroid picture! Haha. Seriously, if I danced/goofed off the way I did tonight, it means: (1) I felt comfortable; (2) the DJ played good music (John Jow -- lots of good old school, hip hop, and dance/high energy!); and (3) I felt happy (optionally: buzzed ;)).

But back to pictures (as usual, this entry is very stream-of-consciousness)... as I looked around, and thought the above things, I really wished I could take pictures... to freeze these moments in time, and treasure them forever. I had to settle for trying to commit everything to my failing memory, instead. =)

I feel so blessed to have found my spiritual home. But more than that, I praise God for continuing to deepen the relationships in career fellowship - that I am able to become more transparent/comfortable with them, and vice-versa. To "keep it real," yo! ;)

Man, we had a blast! It was cool seeing the "ghetto-ness" come out on the dance floor! Hehe. I love dancing to this kind of music; I even got a little freaky (with another brother)! *grin*... like this one girl remarked: "Dang, your fellowship has lots of cool people who know how to have fun!"

I have to admit: I was happily surprised too! ;)

Final random thought: it felt really really weird not having a camera in my hands! Kinda nice, since I didn't have to run around and stuff... but weird. =) I helped usher ("usher, remix... 7 o'clock, on the dot, in my drop top, cruisin the streets..." haha), but for the most part, I sat and *gasp* enjoyed the wedding. Plus, I got to cha-cha, so it was all good! ;P

I thank God for blessing and guiding our church and fellowship. I'm really happy here (and continue feeling challenged to grow)... and tonight made me realize that I really can't see myself (or my future family?) elsewhere...
