The truth comes out in hard times!




With it being November and all it makes me think of last year. I try not to think about it but still there is something missing...my brother. Its nice to have friends to help you through everything. Everybody knows the saying, action speaks louder than words. You find out who your real friends are when the storms come. I only had a few "real" friends during that time last year. Just because I know somebody and we are "cool" with each other does not mean they are a true friend.
I remember last year when my brother died the next day my parents had to go to town and do a bunch of stuff, I can honestly say I didn't know what to do. Sometimes kids say" I don't know what to do", but what they mean is my life is boring. My parents dropped us off with our neighbors but all I wanted to do was get out of the house. I remember going outside and just walking in circles and I thought I will go see what Lydia is doing. I just sat there with Lydia, we didn't really talk or anything but it was peaceful. To this day Lydia will email me and say "are you really OK, I want to know how you are doing, I care," and I know she means it. Thank you Lydia, I love you. You are a "real" friend.

I think of Mrs. Monessa, how I could be up missing my brother and could not sleep at 3:00 AM, and I would text you and you would text me back. Thank you, you are a "real" friend.

Then there's Cali and Alex! Thank you Cali, for all the times you listened to me, let me tell you how I felt and you cried with me you would hug me and cheer me up. Thank you, you and your family are "real" friends. And thank you Alex too, you helped me and my mom this past year a lot, you've been a great guy friend. You checked on us all the time, and made us laugh. You helped fill the days that seemed so empty. Thank you you are a "real" friend.
I have had a lot of changes this past year and some of them were hard. I do not know why every thing that has happened, but I know one day I will know. Until then most days are hard and I want to totally forget what happened...but I know I can't.

Cali, and Me:)
