"A Friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity." ~Proverbs 17:17
Friendship. A ten letter word that everyone yearns for. A thing that people have in their daily lives. A noun that I can thank God for everyday in my life. All I can say is that without my friends, I would not be the person I am today.My friends complete me. In a person's life they have their share of memories, right? But other than family, who do people usually spend those memories with? Exactly, friends. Friends are pretty much the rocks to relationships. The people that you want to spend your time with and the people that you trust. Other than my family and God… if I did not have my friends then I would be... lost. I have a reason to thank God everyday for the amazing friends that I have now. For being the people that I love. For being the people that give me hope. Hope in yesterday. Hope in Today. Hope in tomorrow. For being the crying shoulder that everyone needs. For being everything that has made me the person I am now, compared to the person I was. For being (insert positive effect here).
Man, I have it bad. And this music isn't helping. Why am I listening to Tarzan again? Phil Collins and your voice...I have the end of the year blues. Knowing that a week from now, I am going to be at home, waiting for camp to start. Now, don't get me wrong, I LOVE my family. There is just this thing about my boys, Jamie, and a few of my other girlfriends that just make school so easy to deal with. They keep life simple, reminding me that worries create problems, and life is an everyday thing. They are the closest thing to family outside of family for me and the more I think of them, the more I realize I am one of the luckiest people in the world. He may not remember this, but Justin told me once "Leah, I am really happy to have gotten to know you. Having friends like you remind me why life is good." Him telling me that has been on my heart ever since and knowing that I have people like him and our friends in my life remind me...I am so blessed.
"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work; If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!"
- Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
