It's all right to make mistakes... you're only human...
(a piece from my journal)
...But, within the moment I took the time to step out of my world and see a girl in the corner sitting on a bench crying. I needed to talk to her. I needed her to confide in me. I needed her to let me enter her life. So, I walked up and kneeled down beside her and said, "I know I don't know you, but are you okay?"...
Do you know how many times I would have killed to have a person kneel down beside me and ask me if I was okay? Even if I was smiling from ear to ear... just to know that someone I didn't even know cared about me for that one second in their life... amazing.
She shook her head no and I have her a few hugs. Just as she cried into my shoulder and thanked me, I could feel some of my very own tears forming. I could feel her pain and her emotion. Although I wasn't all too upset (reguardless of what happened earlier), I felt every ounce of her emotion and I saw myself in her shoes... and I cried.
You know what? If fate somehow made me forget all my memories from this one trip to Cali, I hope that in some way I will have the ability to keep at least this one.
