And while this was a beautiful and romantic sentiment at the time, I knew that it wasn't true. Just because we are in the company of others doesn't mean that we can't feel alone.
Somewhere there is a blog written well before I was married about how I feel most alone right after a big music performance. After all the congratulations are given and hugs received I am usually left alone in a gym to clean up the stage.
But yesterday something completely different happened.
We had a big celebration at my school for winning the Blue Ribbon Award. We're kind of a big deal.
The kindergarten students sang first and, after they finished and were sitting in their seats, I got to go sit next to Micah. :) He came to the ceremony!
It was the most wonderful experience to have him with me! I felt so loved and supported. It was fabulous to share such an important part of my life with him. He got to see the students I babble on about day after day and understand why I love them so much.
Then he got to see my middle school choir. They are an absolutely wonderful group of students who challenge me on a regular basis. Many tears and successes I have experienced as a teacher are brought forth by my middle school choir.
So, while I know there will be times in life where I feel lonely, yesterday wasn't one of those times!
peace.
