Life Is Good...
The story itself has quite a long history. Some have heard this history, some have witnessed it, and some have never heard it mentioned. No matter where it is you sit on this broad spectrum, knowing everything to knowing nothing, is not important. What is important is that change has taken place. Something has happened. I am not sure how and I don't know why, but this change is very amazing. I'm not the person to get to the point of the story, but rather one who mulls over the details to discover why things happen instead of focusing merely on the outcome itself. This change in myself means the world, it means life, it shows happiness in many aspects. Strangely this summer it has been camp people who have hurt me tremendously and other camp people who have helped me fix the broken pieces of myself that have been impossible to fix for so long now. Camp is a different world from the one we live in. Many times it seems as though camp is a lovely fairy tale with slightly difficult issues to deal with along the way. Sometimes however real problems and conflicts that break things apart in this other world do infiltrate the lovely dream reality. Miracles however, still take place in these settings. Both have happened for me this summer. Perhaps I am finally working past my issues, but I believe that change has happened because of the friends that have surrounded me through the good and the tough. No matter the cause, something is different and life is good again. I'll let you ponder the rest for now.
No matter where you are on your path, there is a higher power who sees everything. It rejoices with you during the good times and sends help in the form of a friend (our own living angels)to guide you and get you back onto good roads. Life isn't perfect. Every single person has problems they deal with on a daily basis. Compassion for each other's problems and kindness along the roads of life is what matters. Help where you can, even if all you can do for someone is listen. Perhaps really hearing that person and caring what they have to say will make a world of difference for them. Each person that comes into your life will change it somehow. Sometimes the changes are so small you can not even tell what has happened. Sometimes the changes are monumental. When your world is altered to a great percentage for the good, those are the people you will keep in your heart. The friends you won't want to let go of, whether it be to physical distance (someone who lives in another country) or to emotional distance (growing apart from someone/losing touch). Hold onto them the best you can, but remember that perhaps they were only sent into your life for a season. Cherish them for the time you have them, and when it is time to let go, remember them fondly and never forget what they meant to you). Always remember that even when you feel as though you can't love yourself, that your friends will always love you, and that they will always be there to support you. Friends are living angels. Treat them well.
