This just in, from Nate.

I need to apologize for how I've tried to forget you. You were one of my greatest friends, and I wanted to hate you...I wanted to hate you because I was hurt, and I wanted to forget you because the pain wouldn't leave. I went numb, I strayed away from God, I blamed him for everything. It's different now, though...I have recently started to do my best to live for God again. I'd like to start hanging out again, but i promise that it won't ever be just you and me, there will be at least 3 other people if not more, that is if you'll accept this new friendship I'm offering. I'll be praying that the past doesn't affect your decision...I'll be praying that you accept it.

Later,
Nate

Wow. Wow, wow, wow. God does work miracles. He changes a boy named Nate, from a lovestruck, brokenhearted teenager into a growing-up young adult. Oh my goodness. I can't tell you how happy this makes me. It's just... Amazing. God is amazing. That's all I can say.

I'll have to be careful how I reply. Although it's been two years, I'm pretty sure the scars on Nate's heart from our relationship and its disastrous end are still pretty fresh. But if God has brought him this far, I think this might work.
