AN IMPORTANT POST.

I'm not going to use this time to sit up here and post a lame post. I usually try not to post some lame stuff on the contrary, but I want this post to be unusually special. I want people to really set aside thier pride & thoughts on EVERYTHING and then read this. It might make you realize some things, or not. But here it goes...

I lost a friend last week, but gained more. I lost Scott Tunstall. We all lost him. BUt tonight, I gained an already tremendous love for God. I gained the closure that I longed for with Scott. I gained a new realization with a friend of mine. I gained almost the most precious gift you could honestly get from life- the gift of not taking things for granted.

It doesn't matter where I got all of this inspiration, but I will in fact go into detail about the source later. What I learned tonight, I already had inside me, I just needed a few guiding words to help move my realization along. Scott was taken from us, but it was what was supposed to happen. God places each one of us on this earth as a guide, a guide to people. God's intentions for us are to be a guide and teach one thing to each individual we come into contact with. What did Scott teach me? Scott taught me that there's never any reaosn to not put a smile on someone's face, he taught me that our teenage generation as a whole needs to come together, he taught me that life is short, and he also taught me that walking through life isn't easy.

Enough of that ever-so-deep discussion & onto a little less deep topic...

Tonight I also realized alot about friendships. Even though sometimes friendships seem like they are one thing- theyare really another. I have a few people in my life, who I really wish to keep there. I think today I really spent my whole day with TWO people that mean more to me than I even expected. Both are good friends, but are becoming more than just good. It took me some time to realize that just because some peoples' friendships look perfect, they really aren't. It's been a rough senior year for the most part, but all in all- I've learned something in every situation that's been put in front of me. Learning the hard way leads you to REALLY learning what is supposed to come out of the situation.
