stay away.

yesterday was a pretty big bummer for me.

a priest that i've been really close to for a long time has decided to take a break.

it was a really big shock for me.

i knew that he'd most likely be switching around soon since it's been about 5 years.

but thinking of leaving entirely was a hard hit.

he's been such a great guidance in my faith and helped me so much.

he's taught me how faith is AWESOME and put it in terms that i understand.

i pretty much just broke down in church. :'[

i got like a five minute hug and a goodbye.

that's all i wanted.

i'm so proud of him, though, i wouldn't want him to not take this opportunity if he needs it.

i'll miss him a lot, but thank god for email.

i've just been very down lately because of that.

it feels like a punch in the gut.

so i'm just praying and asking for guidance from God.

i don't really know what to do.

i just keep thinking about how he told me to "keep smiling."

so, i will.

hurt super stinks.

i just need God with me now.

i'll be better soon.

just prayer and love for now.
