You can't measure what kind words will do...

Hey guys. This past week was soooooooooooooooooo looooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggg! It seriously felt like it would never end! So, as a quick update of how things are. Things are picking up a bit in places. As I mentioned in my last post, my friend had committed suicide, and as you could imagine, it's been a big challenge. It's really made me look at people differently, and cherish all my friends and family so much more. We all need to share our love with the people who mean the most to us, because you have no idea what is going on in their lives and you never know if today is the last day you'll hear them laugh or see them smile. Love your friends, love your family, and most importantly love your enemies. Just like your friends and family, they are going through trials and need help as well. We should all learn to be there for each other when things get rough. Everybody deserves a smile or a hug everyday. Nobody deserves to be teased or hated. We all make mistakes, but that doesn't mean you have to hate them. You don't need to judge them either, God can do that himself. Yes, sometimes people do things you don't agree with, but that doesn't mean you should judge them. You are supposed to judge their works, not them individually. I myself need to work on this, I know I'm not perfect, I'm far from it. But after seeing what hatred does to people, and what cruel words do, I want to become a better person and not be the one responsible of them feeling like they've been mistreated. I want to be there for anyone, anytime, about anything. We all have so much love to give to others. So, take some time to smile, and say hi to somebody. You never know what that simple gesture could do in their lives. Laugh harder than you should, love like you've never loved before, and live with no regrets!

Hurt and Happiness

Hey, sorry it's been so long. I've been having a really hard couple of weeks. But I promise it wasn't all bad. I had preference, and that was a lot of fun. One of the biggest things that has kept me from posting stuff is that a friend of mine committed suicide, and I've been a wreck since all that happened. It seriously seems like everything horrible I could have thought of, keeps happening. There has been a lot of good though, and I've been blessed many times this week. Me and a friend have gotten a lot closer, actually that's happened with a lot of my friends. And I had preference to help me have a good time, and I swear miracles were just happening all day for me. I also finished the end of the term with all A's even though I thought I wasn't going to get an A in my math class. So, there's been a lot of little blessings throughout these past few weeks, and I'm so grateful that I have my friends. They really have been there for me for all of this. I'm going to miss my friend, but I know, now he's not in the pain he was in. I just wish he knew how many lives he had touched. There was so many people who loved him, even if you didn't really knew him...he still touched your life. He was like a big brother for everybody and cared so much about everyone. I'm going to miss him a lot. :(
