December 11, 2011 the standard of success
Something I will never get used to as an adult: the death of a friend.
I wish I could say these things in lighter circumstances. I was thinking about spiritual growth and what it means to be successful– the success that lasts, you know. And I had a lot of things to say. But now I don’t. And think this just might be it.
I think its just seeking His face alone and with each other. To live fully in this, until its time to go home. That’s the standard set by Christ. That’s the standard set by so many that came after Him. And of those that walked with me for a while and that I’ll see again at home, one day.
Thank you for walking with me, Trixie. For the life that bubbled up through your jokes, the sassy competence that you exuded during all-nighters. Your passion for Asian American issues, the competence in which you and other leaders rallied all the APIA organizations together. Your joy for avocado shakes, dancing, laughter, the simple, delicious, beautiful things in life.
See you at home, friend.
