"Real friendship is shown in times of trouble; prosperity is full of friends." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Tuesday, December 20, 2011
Your "good bye" text sunk my heart. A promise, you broke, hurt even more. Didn't I say that I would be there for you? Didn't I say that I would help you? Weren't you the one that promised me you would first try? All of this could have been prevented by numerous of events, unfortunately, it was not. Even though we recently have been drifting away from being friends to acquaintances, my words, will always remain true. I shall not shallow my words back, as they're already out there, but I hope that this time, you'll take advantage of them.
I know you have a difficult life compared to the average American teen. I know you don't have the latest technologies. I know that you don't have all of the "cool" clothing. I know that you're poor. I know that you're judged. I know that you have family problems. I know that you have friend problems. I know them all, as I once was in your shoes for many of the obstacles you've faced.
Rather than facing your obstacles, you chose to run away. What good will that do? Nothing, it made everything worse: it caused you more family problems and made your family and friends worry sick. But overall, I hope you learned a valuable lesson from this. If it wasn't for me, who risked getting into trouble, stepped up, and took action. If it wasn't for me, would you even have bothered to go home? If it wasn't for me, would you have died in the cold or slept in a nice warm bed? Do you realized who stepped up that day just for you? Who, isn't allowed to talk to your family anymore, but risked getting in big trouble just to notify your relatives? I hope you do. I hope you know how your friends and family were worried for you. How we spent hours waiting for a call back. How much we scarified just for you on that day. I hope that you appreciated all that we did for you.
Now, you're safe and out of the cold. Within that eight hours, worried thoughts and tears kept going through me. I know your life sucks, but I really do hope that even though you can't live the life you want, you're able to learn how to appreciate the little things in life. The people in your life who cares for you and willing to take action when you need it the most.
I hope all of this changed you and your thoughts. Please learn how to appreciate the little things in life first, it will help you then change your life.
My advice to those who are friends with people who are unappreciative and/or suicidal, is to never give up on that person. I know it is a pain in the butt since they're bringing negativity into your life and does not appreciate all that you do, but in reality, we do not know what that person goes through everyday when we do not see him/her. I am sure that your friend appreciates all that you do for him/her, but does not admit it. If you're getting tired of your unappreciative friend, have a chat with your friend about it. People who act unappreciative and suicidal goes through a lot in life that we don't know. It is hard for that person to express their feelings. The last thing that the person wants is their close friend to give up on them. Please, always be there for a friend. Thank you. <3
