Hi there!! So sorry I haven't been updating this blog, just didn't have anything good to say yet haha.
So I am now a graduate. :) Feels good. ^_^ My graduation party was very awesome, including the dance I went to at church two days before it. That was like the most fun I ever had in my life lol. XD Dancing with my grandpa for the first time, and one of my dear friends I rarely get to see. :)
I finally have a job, been working back (I worked there last year) at a grocery store. I like that place, good coworkers and customers. :) I'm going to apply at a children's donation store as well, 'cause the store I'm working at can only offer me so many hours. So I hope I'll get that job too.
Well, I mainly wanted to say that friends are such a blessing to have. Not only are they fun to have when you're either bored or just want to have someone to talk to, but they can give you hope, encouragement, and someone to think, love and pray about other than worrying about yourself. Sometimes (not saying that I really do) I feel like I worry about someone else's life more than my own, which isn't a bad thing, but I really shouldn't worry too much about them and just pray that God will take care of them and focus on working out my own life. Sometimes I feel like I want to do as much for that person as possible, -which again isn't a bad thing, just don't be too involved if God doesn't want you to-when what God really wants you to do is just pray for that person. I have a few friends that I sometimes worry a little about, but I know that God will take great care of them, especially when they know the Lord as well.
Last night I had so much fun with a brother like friend with his two cousins and my sister, when we all went to see The Lone Ranger after hanging out with another friend. And the night just got even better when I noticed another dear friend sitting below us in the theater. :) After the movie (it was so epic, funny, and the music was awesome!! Hans Zimmer. ;) And wow it was 3 hours. I love long movies) we all walked out to the lobby and my friend sitting below me came over and said hi and then we we all went outside to our cars and I talked to him for like 2 hours. That was really great and fun. :) Especially when I rarely got to see him, which is understandably why, since he's busy with life haha, which is good.
There are so many different kinds of friends out there...Your true friends will give you great, godly advice, and love you an till the very end. Your not so true friends will probably want to hang out with you just to have some sort of fun, and probably mostly just talk about themselves. (Not saying that this is true for every "fake" friend, sometimes one of your true friends will just have a lot of problems in his/her life and just can't really stop talking about them and her/his self. Just give them a lot of love, patience, sometimes you just got to tell them the truth what they are doing wrong, and of course give them great advice, all just as Jesus would. <3)
Your friends should be very close to you and as caring to you as you are them. Even if they aren't either of these things, still show them how good of a friend you can be and how much you care by just giving them all the care, love, and advice you can offer, just because you care. Jesus did exactly this.
Your friends are precious. They should be like family to you. You should be like brother and sister. And if you aren't this close, that's okay. As long as you have friends, you have comfort and don't feel so alone, even though Jesus gives us comfort and is with us at all times. He just loves us that much that he gives us more people to love and care about.
I love my friends. I care about them. And I hope and pray for the best in their lives. This is including my sisters, who are also two of my best friends. And of course my parents, the one's who brought me into this world to experience God's love and true friendship. <3 It sucks that I don't get to see some of my friends very often, but I know that they are always with me anyway. :) (And thank God for texting hahaha. ^^)
If you sometimes feel like you aren't a very good friend, don't worry, I do to sometimes. I sometimes worry about becoming a better and better friend, but it ain't how good a friend you are,-like not showing up to b-day parties or of some kind, saying no to a hang out 'cause you're just too tired, or maybe not being the best conservationist-it's how much you care and love that person.
So, all in all, try your best to be like Jesus, and be a friend for that person. And not just for show or gaining love yourself, but because you-again-care.
Thanks for listening (Oo, another thing your friends will like, being a good listener. :) I personally think I'm not too good at this, but of course I want to be a good listener for all of my friends). :) Goodnight and sweet dreams. <3
