Ok I know what you are thinking Christmas is still two weeks away....but three of my friends and I had our own little Christmas this weekend before one leaves for Ontario...and it was amazing and this is why.
It is truly amazing when people come into your life that get to know you....that actually take the time and get to know you....every present I got was somethin that no one else would have thought of...that none of my other friends would even think I would like....heck most of my other friends make fun of me for being stupid or somethin but I am not....and most of my other friends if they saw me reading a book would be like..."you read" and they would be shocked...but thats because they havent taken the time to really understand who I am...the thinker....the reasearcher....the learner...the world changer. My other friends have said yeah go and pursue your dreams but they never actually helped me out by giving me tools to pursue my dreams...now dont get me wrong I love all my friends even though they may think different...I just sometimes rather hang out with people who are goin to lift me up and not tear me down...and that is how I feel with these three...so this weekend we had Christmas....and the feelings I got were feelings of love and unity...I love these three people....and I thank God every day for putting them into my life...they have made blogs about what each person brings to the group and what each person means to them...well its my turn.
Cody...well he is cody and he is amazing...he gets you to think...he challenges you...he reminds me to speak positive into my life...and to speak what I want...he makes me feel special and I dont normally get close to guys...and he is breaking down walls...and showing me what a brother is like...what a friend is like...he goes the extra mile.
Heather...ha ha well she makes me laugh and not because she gets everything we say like five minutes later...but because she brings so much Joy to the room she is in...she brings questions like why and I get to answer them and then I never forget why I believe what I believe...even tho sometimes our opinions clash she still accepts them and still says well thats a great point...she doesnt tear my ideas down...and I love that about her.
Amanda aka Hazzard...well this friend has truly challenged me...and broken MANY walls down...she is a keeper definitly...God has brought this one in my life for a reason...she believes in me even when I dont care...she tells me like it is even when I dont want to hear it...she truly cares and I have just learned that...she is a great friend...and she has shown me a part of God that I wouldnt have found in anyone else.
These people are my friends and I love each one of them...they are amazing in different ways...this Christmas was amazing because there was no fighting there was peace...and I got to experiance a family Christmas...in a different way...in a way I will never forget...I was in the greatest mood today...I was a real happy...somethin I have forgotten could happen....I found a piece of me I left behind and forgot to pick up...I found a part of God that I have been searching for all this time...I found intimacy with God...and I found hope once again...thank you friends...I really love you guys...a real love...this is a Christmas I will NEVER forget...this one changed my life...Merry Christmas everyone else...and dont forget....love is actually all around.

Okay, Nicole. That was seriously touching. You are an awesome friend and I really, honestly love you. I love how you are on fire for God and I want to be like you. I want to have that fire burning in my heart too. Thank you soooooo much for my blankey (it is already my blankey) and thank you even more for showing us you, the real you.

Hey Nicole...Thanks for the comment on my post...I really needed to hear that! I loved this blog. Truly amazing. I am still praying for those type of friends to come into my life. I know God won't leave me high and dry with no christian friends...it just might take awhile...I'm so happy that i still have the connection with you and all the peeps from ENR, 'cause i can still talk to you guys if i need someone to talk to...even though it's not the same as face to face convo's! Well Thanks again...God bless you and talk to you later!! **MWAH**
