Yesterday I talked to three people who are very near and dear to me. I talked to more than three people yesterday they just don't fit into this category... anyhow, by the end of the night when I was tossing and turning trying to fall asleep I realized how different each person is and yet how much I need them in my life.

Person 1: She is my best friend. We've been through a lot together ever since middle school and we are in the same stage of life. I hadn't talked to her for a couple of weeks and it never ceases to amaze me how we can just pick up where we left off like it is nothing. It's also comforting to know that someone else has a less than stable life, just like myself. We both go away to school, we both move home for the summer, we both have boyfriends who are not at home with us. Needless to say we do a lot of traveling and we have to figure out how to have a job, go to school, and balance lives in two different cities.

Person 2: Another great friend from high school. She is in a different place in life. She works two jobs, doesn't go away to school and doesn't have a boyfriend that she has to juggle into the mix. Sometimes I worry that because she doesn't do all of the stuff that I do maybe she won't understand where I'm coming from, but that's rarely the case. Spending time with her is just refreshing because we are carefree and are just out to enjoy our time.

Person 3: He is more to me that I can even begin to explain. Before last night I hadn't heard his voice for a week and although I didn't exactly love the fact I was alright with it because we still talked online. Last night though getting to talk on the phone and being able to laugh together just put me in the best mood ever. There's something about having that one person who you can always laugh with and who can always know how you will react before you can even figure it out that just makes you feel secure in life.

All three people are great people and I am beyond thankful to have them in my life. Among the other amazing people who I am also thankful for.
