Reasons Why People Come Into Your Life

This is not a single day when I haven’t thought about you. You are most genuinely kind, intelligent person I’ve ever met. You have always been there for me. You always fill me with happiness. In return, I promise I’ll always be by your side and to support you for the rest of my life. I am very happy to see this friendship grows as we become closer everyday over the last six years. I wanted to tell you sooner, but I am afraid to hurt our friendship in exchange for love – we can do both. I don’t know if you feel the same way I do. That’s okay if you don’t but I showed my courage to tell you I will always love you. Can’t wait to see you soon on Thanksgiving and to tell you all wonderful

John evolved into my best friend and, wrapping myself in his world, I disregarded the importance of my core group of friends. We reached interpersonal commitment and all of my time belonged to John. We went to events and hung out according to his time frame, with little consideration for my needs. All John said was “no, I don’t want to do that,” and I respected his decision. Looking

“You are the cause of all this pain.” Sometimes there is a friend in your life that is more important to you then you are to them, and that’s perfectly normal, that’s life. There are one or two friends like that in my life. And I admit, once I realized that, or once they started ditching our plans for other people, it stung for a little while, but I got over it. “You are the cause of all this love.” The reason the sting only hurt for a little is because I remembered how these people are still always there for me when I need them to be. I remembered how much fun we have when we do hang out. I remember how these people go out of their way to make one of my bad days good. I remember that they think to do something as simple as asking me if I ate that day because we have practice. I remember that at the end of the day if I REALLY need someone, they will be there no matter what. “You are the thing I can’t forget.” There are some people you meet, some friendships you make, that are just irreplaceable. Sometimes you connect with someone so strongly, so remarkably fast that nobody believes it. Sometimes you connect with someone that you hated for years over something so small that even you have a hard time believing it. Another connection I made with this piece is also with color guard. Color guard is the cause of all my muscle aches, back aches, the reason I had to wear a knee brace for a week, the cause of half my frustration most of the time, and also the reason I have bruises on possibly every single part of my body, but it’s all worth it because guard is something that I love with every ounce in my body. No matter how rough times get, I know that I’m still going to be at practice the next day, and the next, and the next, and the next. And

Overall, I am blessed to have shared about my friend. God is our friend as well, and as Christians, we should remember all that he has done for us. After all, as Shavon’s favorite scripture, Mark 12:30 says, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your

While I was going out for a stroll, I saw Rachel crying on the park bench. I walked up to her and said “Are you ok”, “ I am so sorry for not being your friend Melinda”, “Can you forgive me” Rachel said. ”Yeah, as long as you be my friend”. We hugged it off and we caught up with each other and finding out what we have been doing. It feels nice to be Rachel’s friend again, I feel like I can tell her anything

Just because God’s blessed you where you are doesn’t mean you can just sit back and settle there, you have to stay open to what God is doing now. What worked five years ago may not work today, if you’re going to be successful you have to be willing to change, every blessing is not supposed to be permanent, every provision is not supposed to last forever. We should constantly evaluate our friendships, who’s speaking into your life? Who are you depending on? Make sure they're not dragging you down limiting you from blossoming, everybody is not supposed to be in our life forever, if you don't get rid of the wrong friends you will never meet the right

She put her lunch tray on the table, plopped her backpack on the floor, and sat down across from me. She started to eat the mac and cheese on her plate (51).” When Auggie was hurt he clung to the only people he knew were true friends to him. He is lucky to have Summer, having a Summer in high school would have meant everything to me, as it does to Auggie. Summer saw Auggie for who he truly was, she did not see just his difference she saw him. She saw how smart he was, how nice he was to her. She saw his humor and his pain, she just wanted to be the best person she could be for him and that was a friend. A friend is something you should never take for granted. Someone to lean on, to confess to, and to be silly with. I never had friends like that. My friends talked behind my back to my sister about me, telling her how annoying I was or they couldn’t understand why I thought the way I did. They told my sister not to let me go to a certain college so they didn’t have to “take care” of me for four more years. I didn’t have friends in high school, I had acquaintances, because I was different. The people in my life never even said bye to me when I left for college that is when I started to truly see how I was treated. It took me until I went away to college to find someone like Summer. To find someone who would constantly be there for me whenever I need them and to laugh

Throughout the years that I lived in, there has been many bad things happening to me. The only bad thing that I give thanks to were the time when my dad would spank me for very good reasons. At the time I would be crying and hoping he wouldn’t but they were well deserved. With every spank it hurt, I know that, but later on with every mark I had I knew that pain is temporary it may last for a minute or an hour or a day even a year but eventually it will subside and something else will take it’s place. While that something is getting back it’s time to come back stronger and better because of it and I’m showing that the world is not a happy and peaceful place no it’s a mean and nasty place and it will beat you on your knees if you let it. I have shown that it hasn’t beat’n me from all the hits it has given me, I was able to look up and get up from that situation because it’s not how hard you hit the world it’s how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward how much pressure you can take and keep moving forward.

A vast majority of people have had a friend or two- a good one, at that. Someone they could trust and talk to. Someone who granted them that spark of childhood and happiness that fueled their games, their talks, their smiles, their personalities. Some friendships grow strong, to the point where they are unbreakable, even after devastating events that seem to tear them apart and hold them down. That's exactly what happens in this story- “The Bridge to Terabithia”. An emotional yet realistic and compelling story by Katherine Paterson. It is banned in many places due to swearing and the utterly tragic storyline.

During high school, I did not have an abundance of friends. Although I had a joyful and uplifting mentality, the secular culture of public school deterred me from indulging in a vast array of friendships. I had a tough time trusting people who had the vocabulary of a sailor and refused to believe in God. However, towards the end of my senior year, I came across an admirable African American lady named Donneisha Floyd. Donneisha relates to me because she loves to work out, enjoys spending quality time with her friends, attends church, values her family, and most of all, she communicates with intentionality and reminds me of God’s plan for my future. She does this even during personal stress, pain, or heartache, which I find as an incredible

And despite how badly I want her back, back in the safety of my arms, there is nothing that can be done to change what has happened. My heart mourns over the grief of her passing. Oh, the pain, it causes me unbearable pain, but I oddly seem to like it. It reassures me that our love is true, that our love is strong and eternal. As peculiar as it may sound, I hope that the agonizing pain will never ease as the time passes by, I hope that my heart will continue to ache, validating that my love for her is still remains, treasured in my heart, till the day we reunite, embrace and rekindle our love for each other. Till the day we reunite in the afterlife, where our love will continue to grow

I’m one of your most honest friends, Andy, and, no offense, but dude, he died like, a hecka’ long time ago. You tellin’ us we need to go to some mountain in god knows where to help you cry over your daddy is about as stupid as Miley Cyrus’ comeback into media.” I stare into his desolate, dark, black eyes. “Is that really how you feel Jack?”, I ask him. He looks at me almost, understandingly. “Yes, Andy. I wouldn’t lie to you. I know your dad meant a lot to you, but you have to let go”. I look at the crowd of my friends faces, “Who else feels this way? Come on, just raise your hand”. Everyone except for Sarah raises their hand. “Sarah.”, I speak directly to her. “Yes, Andronicus?”, she replies. I give her the same look of desperation that I gave Jack, “How would you feel about coming with me to Mt. Polaris?” I disparagingly ask her; she looks at me and smiles, “I would love

Jiminy just stared at her a smile forming on his lips. This was the first time in a long time that he had actually taken the time to get to know someone, or try too. It was nice and he wondered why ha had taken so long to do so? Work of course was the answer, he always had so much of it that it left little to no time to socialize with others. Taking in a deep breath he cocked his head off to the side. “I know what you mean, it would be nice to have someone around you know who would support you. I believe that if you don’t have anyone to share your feeling, as well as your thoughts and wishes with life isn’t worth living. We are made to love one another not hate and be alone.” He shook his head slightly. A grin spread across his face at the

Through my experiences I have come to realize that there are basically three types of friends a person can have. There are friends that I call “sometimes” friends, these people appear to be your friend but only when you are face to face with them, and when you are not around them they act more like a foe. They are often referred to as two faced or a back stabber. These types of friends are not very reliable nor should they be trusted. Another type of friend a person can have, and the best kind, is a “true” friend. A true friend is someone you know you can always trust and rely on no matter what. The last type of friend is the “acquaintance”. These are the type of friends that you do not necessarily hate, but at the same time you do
