I went throught The Box. I couldn't help it, I had to.
I try not to do it often because it's filled with the past, and it's good to look back but not to dwell.
The poetry I found from Nate reassures me how much he really should be a writer now, his poems at the age of 14 were better than most people double his age. And the love he spoke of towards me was filled with such passion. How deeply I felt about him came over me again. I have to remember this always, if I have children I have to remember how much they are able to feel at a young age.
I loved junior high and the very beginning of high school. I had the best friends a girl could have. I loved Lyndsey, Ashley, and Heather almost to the point of being in love with them. haha maybe I was. If I had only had them as friends for the rest of my life, I would have never regretted it.
I feel like my life started in seventh grade, that it was then who I was going to be started to form. Without the four of them I would not be the person I am today. Every person that has come into my life has had some impact on me, but they were the first to show me how much you can love life.
I can still remember how it felt when Nate broke up with me. How many tears rolled down my face. I remember how it felt to be wrapped up in Lyndsey's bed, felling safe only when I was at her house. I remember Lyndsey staying with me letting me write like a mad woman poetry cursing Nate out.
I still remember being at Ashley's house and Heather, her, and I putting frosting on our stomach's of the boys we liked. I remember how it felt laughing until my sides hurt. When I think about it my sides hurt now.
I am so grateful.
even now I can call any of them and still talk. You never have to lose friends if you don't want to.
