So there are some days in my life when I feel as if I have no friends. Its not necessarily because I am being neglected by the friends I do have, or lack there of, but simply because the feeling creeps up on me like a rabid squirrel on the sidewalk. For some strange reason, I will be sitting in my room, class, or, heck, practically anywhere in the world (and I mean that quite literally) and get pelted with the aching feeling that "nobody likes me, everybody hates me." Then I sit and sulk about all the "bad" things in my life and over analyze everything that people do and say to me. However, today was not one of those silly days.
Last week was my birthday and in celebration of it my friend Chad decided to send me a package in the mail. Now, if you know me at all, you know that I LOVE receiving things in the mail. It could be a bill for school and I would still jump for joy because the letter was addressed to me. So I was extremely elated when I got a package slip in my dorm mailbox today. I then went to the mail room, asked for my coveted treasure, and opened it as soon as possible. There were a bunch of goodies in it, including a nice two page letter, written by my comrade. Unfortunately I had quite the busy day and couldn't read it on the spot, but when I did, I was elated. I won't go into detail, but lets just say I am thankful for wonderful friends who take the time to care about my life in general. Especially those that write me two page letters with a mix CD to go with it.
"Good friends are like the wind. You may not be able to see them at the moment, but they can move you even from far away."- Me, myself & I
