Samesies!

Yesterday J and C, while taking a break from bugging me and chatting with each other at the library, discovered they were both Jehovah's Witnesses and were positively elated ... altogether now: it's a world of laughter, a world of tears, a world of hopes and a world of fears, blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah, it's a small world after all. This may be good for both of them, because despite the age difference (J is 13 and C is almost 16) they keep telling me that they don't have many friends ... and often go so far as to say that I'm their only friend. Just a few days ago J told me that I was never allowed to leave the library, because people he likes (teachers, etc) are always leaving and it's always after he's just gotten to know them and like them. I thought this was sweet but sad, because while I may stick around for a year or two, I can't say I'll be here for the rest of his difficult teenage years. Now if only I could make a "small world" discovery to find out about someone else in this town who is an aetheist, then I'll be giggling and squealing!
