It's funny how something as simple as writing a little info onto a blog everyday for 6 days straight, can end up being every other day.
Oh well. Life goes on.
So writing for yesterday.
Day 3 and counting... Family near and far.
I have family that lives all across the west coast and then of course the mass extended family that lives practically across the country. I remember taking a trip when I was about 6 years old, one summer vacation, living in a motor-home, going across the country. It was fun, and it comes to mind because it reminds me of all the family that I have. I have basically as many great aunts and uncles as there are states in the lovely USA.
Family is a fun thing, sometimes. Lets not lie. Every family has their issues, but mine is exceptional! Exceptionally weird that is. But I like them. And I like how big it is. Somehow, I think that if ever I wanted to take another cross country vacation, I'd have a place to stay no matter where I went, because my family is everywhere.
So ya, growing up with a massive family is fun, and I highly recommend it.
Day 2 and counting... Friends.
This is an easy, I look back on my life, for nearly 21 years, and can easily say that I've been so blessed by every friendship that I've ever had. I've learned so much from the people in my life over the years and I wouldn't trade a single one of them for anything.
Even just last night, a bunch of us went swing dancing in honor of my and some other amazing people's birthdays. And it was a blast! Friends bring such joy to a person's life and should never be taken for granted. Friends rejoice with you when something happy happens, they cry with you when tragedy strikes, they make you laugh, and if they're especially important to you, sometimes they'll even make ya cry. But most importantly, they're there for you. Through thick and thin. I've had a friend for almost 21 years now. She's been there for me no matter what, and I try to do the same for her. We've known each other since being in the womb, and God willing we'll be great friends til the grave.
I guess Toy Story has been right all these years. "You've got a friend in me."
