An Old Soul

I had a friend tell me today that I am an "old soul". So, I have been pondering that today. I guess I should expand and share the whole quote....edited for spelling and grammar, b/c with this friend I have to do that...haha ;):

"You may only be a kid, but you are wise and in some [ways] you are an old soul and that is a good thing."

hmm....an old soul..... oh, and WISE??!! haha. I guess I am, in a way....an old soul that is.....maybe?? If I am interpreting right what that is exactly...... I know that God has already taken me down some tough trails and in a few valleys that have grown me spiritually and given me.....dare I say wisdom??....in certain things....I guess.... I don't think I would have thought 5 years ago that I would be where I am and have learned what I have learned. Its cool, though, b/c God has been there every step of the way, and it all is worth it when I think about where I am with Him as a result. OK, so I may not be making a ton of sense, b/c I am trying to sort all this out myself. But I guess this is just my personal 'journal' [with public viewing, haha], so maybe it doesn't HAVE to make sense.

So....I am just.....pondering.....in the few minutes I have before choir practice....
