Can I please have a life changing experiance.

I recently got to have a nice talk with a person who truly influences my life. We talked about the future and plans for college and career choices. We talked about problems with people we know and that we face, we talked about the boys in our lives and possible relatioships. I cannot tell you how great it was to have such a serious talk and be able to say stuff to someone and know they won’t judge me. It made me miss her and her guidance in my young life. She is such a wonderful person inside and out, and really lives her life to the fullest.
…Miss You…

Wake up to a sunny day, Not a cloud up in the sky
Then it starts to rain.
My defenses hit the ground, and they shatter all around
So open and exposed
But I find strength in the struggle
Face to face with my trouble
When you’re broken, in a million little pieces
And you’re trying, but you can’t hold on anymore
Every tear falls down for a reason
Don’t you stop believing in yourself
When you’re broken.
Little girl don’t be so blue
I know what you’re going through
Don’t let it beat you up.
Hitting walls and getting scars
Only makes you who you are
Only makes you who you are.
No matter how much your heart is aching
There is beauty in the breaking

This year I’ve gotten to know some of the most amazing people. They’ve helped me in every way, and they continue to help me. I can honestly say that I hope we have friendships that last an eternity.
A.A
You know, you are one of a kind. You are beautiful inside and out, you’re deep, and by just knowing you I strive to be a better person. You’re my best friend and I’m happy just to be in your life.
R.G
I’ve known you forever, and even though you’re far away now, you’re my best friend. You know me better than anyone else.
T.O
I’ve only know you for how long…but you can always cheer me up, because you happen to be the funniest person ever! You are just a joy in my life.
H.M
We’ve have had some crazy times. I miss hanging out with you and sharing everything with you. Let’s hang out sometime soon.
J.W
You are one of the most quality guys I have ever met. I feel comfortable with you and enjoy ever minute we’re together. I’m so glad you’re in my life.
Just thinking about all of you brightens my day.

I am not skilled to understand
What God has willed, what God has planned
I only know at His right hand
Stands one who is my Savior
I take Him at His word and deed
Christ died to save me; this I read
And in my heart I find a need
Of Him to be my savior
That He would leave His place on high
And come for sinful man to die
You count it strange, so once did I
Before I knew my Savior
My Savior loves, My Savior lives
My Savior’s always there for me
My God: He was, my God; He is
My God is always gonna be
Yes, living, dying, let me bring
My strength, my solace from this spring;
That He who lives to be my King
Once died to be my Savior
That He would leave His place on high
And come for sinful man to die
You count it strange, so once did I
Before I knew my Savior

Ladies, don’t you know if you don’t respect yourself enough…then no one will respect you.
You’re so young, you have your whole life, why do you make such damaging decisions?
You have such value, but you fail to see it.

I’ve been finding puzzle pieces of us kept in the dust
I’ve been hiding letters and photographed frames to forget your name
