First Perceptions

It’s been a while since I posted something. The romantic infatuation that was there once for a co-worker is gone (see previous post). She's still a great friend and one more reason that I like going to the office, but that's about it.

Almost 2 years ago, I met a person that I made some quick judgement on. I immediately thought that this person was beautiful (yes - its a girl I'm speaking of), and that they had a passion for God. As I began to talk to this person, I made a few more quick judgements - that they had ABSOLUTELY no interest in me and that they were quick to negatively judge a person by the little that they observed or found out about them. The latter negatively influenced me to not do much more other than to be a friend.

Over the last few weeks, I began to think a lot about this person - almost daily. I began to think of my first perceptions of this person, and how this person has changed since I first met them. Her character has changed, and for the better I might add. I can only wonder how much I have changed since then, and whether her first perceptions of me have changed as well.

Life is full of change, and many times its good. Maybe it will be good for me this time.
