then the circle of your friends will defend the silver lining
Everyone always says how it takes something tragic or serious to show who your true friends are, and who truly cares for you. It’s sad but true, and I’ve unfortunately now been experiencing this truth.
hold onto the ones who really care, in the end they’ll be the only ones there
It’s nice to see a support system in action, and I’m grateful that myself and my family has friends who are caring and helpful.
I’ve wanted nothing more than to get out of the house lately. Chris, my lovely Chris, broke his plans for the night and took me out to catch fireflies with him. That didn’t work out so well, but we walked around the empty back of the school and in the woods and we sat on the swings and just talked and it was nice to be distracted and to just feel free.
This is supposed to be one of the happiest times of my life, and for my family. Graduating high school and all that jazz; this should be a time for celebration. But unfortunately, stuff’s been rough lately. Doctors and appointments and phone calls. Keeping secrets and waiting and not knowing and then knowing and wishing you didn’t. I’ve had to watch my mom cry. Lately, it’s all about being strong.
I know things are about to get tougher, and it’s scary…however, I know that I’ve got the best support system surrounding me, and for that I’m so grateful.
