I thought about posting this in "Things that are on your mind" since I posted here just recently, but I don't think that'd cut it.
In the teen Sunday school room at my church, we have these strings hanging up on one wall with pictures of all the teens from a ton of teen activities going back several years. They got taken down over the summer for vbs, and this morning I decided to hang them back up. It was so bittersweet, because there were a lot of good memories. We had about 10 teens, and 2 youth leaders. We would hang out several times a month, do all sorts of stuff.. Most of them have gone off to college and other churches recently, though. So basically I was stuck for a half hour staring at this wall of memories, waiting for Sunday school (which is now just me and one other person, and my mom teaches bc we have no teen leader), trying not to cry bc I hate being alone. Also a bitter reminder that this is my last year in high school, and it's gonna be so hard to maintain friendships after that. This sucks.
