A desperate need to be more thankful

I look around me and see all the wonderful things in my life, namely my totally amazing friends. I really am blessed/lucky beyond all belief to have such awesome friends... the best in the world, seriously. But, somehow, even with such amazing people in my life, I manage to find things to complain about... things to be confused and troubled about. So I don't like my family... So I'm confused about my boyfriend... So I'm just trying to get through high school! What right does that give me to forget all the wonderful things (er... people) in my life? I am so ungrateful. Please fogive me for being so.

To quote Sir Matthew Klein (xanga), (this is shortened... hence the "..."s)

"Once again, I have been a fool.

I learned a valuable lesson tonight... life isn't about high school, or church, or money, or even success.

Life is about relationships.

Whether it be with the girl or boy you love, or with the friends who stand by your side. Or with the parents who care for you, or the God you look to in times of need.

I can't keep being buried in my own self-pity. I've got to get out there and live instead of pretending.

Thank you. I love you all."

Thank you, Matt. Such good words that I stole from you ^_^ The one in bold is the one that really matters to me more than any other, so this is my formal apology and thanks to those who have put up with me and my stupidity time and time again... who have been shoulders for me to cry on... who have been the source of my smiles/laughter... who are just always there for me. I really do love you, so much... more than you will ever know.
