Gifts of Life.

today i realized that you need to appreciate even the smallest things in life. wether it goes from a high five or a hug to even a new car or a job promotion. you see the sadness of different people almost everyday.. it makes you want to put on a smile for them and be happy so they will feel your happiness. divorces, break ups, lay offs, deaths, broken bones, and even a scratch or two. its not the end of the world. appreciate the little things in life. look at the sky whenever the sun goes down and say "hey, that is beautiful. god can make some cool lookin things". these bumps in the road that happen in our lives are there to show us that this is going to make us stronger. yes divorces suck. im not even over mine yet. i still feel like shit. lost my car, lost my family, lost my moms friendship, losing my brother, losing everything slowly and slowly. but there is one thing that i am not losing. and that is god. everyday he is there for me, by my side making me stronger. you gotta look at these things as accomplishments in your life that will make you who you are today. teens everyday have to experience things like this. i know i am not the only one. i just sometimes wish that it didnt even have to happen. when i see some of the families that are still married and happy with kids. i hate them sometimes. but to want something that is not yours is a sin, so if i said i wanted their family i would be sinning. which i probably do it every day and i regret it. my car will come one day, my job will come one day, my guy is already here and i love him with all of my heart and he is there for me everyday with open arms. the man upstairs has always got my back. hes my homedog, my dad, my savior, my messiah. "hey thats my jeeps name". anyways, back on topic, i am learning to appreciate the dings that are coming from this divorce. i have met a great new family that has taken me my mom and my little brother in as new family to them. i love them very much and i just met them. the guy i am still getting used to but everyday he makes a bigger and bigger impression. love is a crazy thing. but if mom is happy, im happy. their great, im great, everyone is great. brother is leaving soon and i dont know what im going to do without him. i might die. hes my bestfriend. but hell be able to live like a guy should. with his dad. and a girl like me will be able to live how she is supposed to live and thats with her mom. i only have one year of highschool, imma live it to the fullest. appreciate the little things, and you will go far. put on a smile, they make the world go round.
