A Search for Walden Pond

so it’s been about 5 weeks since i’ve had sex. alex and i have decided to stop and wait until marriage. it sounds funny because i’ve always sort of scoffed at ‘born again virgins’, but god can cleanse you from anything, and i’ve come to realise that i need to commit to wanting god more than i want alex or more than i want my own desires.

it’s a strange situation, part of me is struggling, it is really hard for both of us to keep control - 5 years of sleeping together makes this really weird - but the other part of me is so calm. my friend’s dad says that you know when you are following god’s guidance when peace follows, i feel like alex and i are closer than ever and happy. we kiss more and laugh more.

it’s never too late to start truly living for god.
