To those who have made a difference

April 20 2007
To all of you that have made difference in my life. Some by explain, some by word. Either way you changed me for the good. And I'm thankful for it. And just because I don't name everybody doesn't mean that they haven't changed me in some way.

First, My parents. I know I don't seem like I listen, but I do. I'm storing all you say for when I need it most. You taught me the best things in life aren't having the latest and greatest but God, and family. thanks.

Ok, now there are some that I don't want to name.

You made me think in a new way. You taught me what it means to replace untrue thoughts with the word of God. thanks.

You're the one that makes me smile for no reason. Just because you are you. Yup Grace, I'm talking about you.

You are always there to talk. Even when we aren't talking about deep things. but, just life in general. It always make me feel better. thanks carmen.

You're the little brother I always wanted. Ok so you are taller but that doesn't mean you better then me. I'm glad that we can be friends and not have to treat each other like creeps. You make me laugh when I don't feel like. Thanks tyler.

Man, I wish I could get you to stop picking on me!!! : ) J/k You're ability to know when to be serious and when to be goofy is a reminder for me. thanks austin.

You made me stop and think about what I truly believe. You made me stronger in Christ. And kept me from going insane. : ) thanks.

You always challenge what I say to make sure I'm thinking straight.. Thanks big brother. Yup, that means you jarred.

Your presence just makes me feel better. Makes me think that I'm not alone. thanks elizabeth.

You taught me that different doesn't mean weird. Just because we don't have the same backgrounds and we haven't experience the same things, doesn't mean we can't be friends. thanks kaelynn.

You always keep me accountable every time I talk to you. I need that. thanks amelia.

Just because we don't talk all time doesn't mean we aren't friends. I feel like when I'm around you that things are just going to be alright. thanks neely.

You are the one that makes me feel want to hug you every time I see you. btw, did I mention that hugs make feel better?? thanks lane

You are one that I know is there to call and talk when I'm feeling lonely. thanks courtney

You are always teaching me what it means to be there no matter what. thanks cory

Ok, i need to go. sometime i'll finish this.
