Friends, I love you.

When I was in the hospital, I had alot of time to think...even outside. It took 2 months to get better. That is alot of thinking time.
During which, I realized how many blessings I have, and have had, and I told myself I would thank you, my friends for what you do, who you are.
Life ended up busying me as soon as I could walk a straight line, and I haven't forgotten to say, thank you.

In my patriarchal blessing it states:

"Always seek for good friends and associates who have the same lofty goals in
life that you have, then you will enjoy a feeling of peace and security in your
involvement with them."

Now, some of you maybe getting a repeat, but I feel the need to publicly acknowledge you for sharing your greatness with me. Because I need it in my life.
Also, many of you know, I do not do so well touching on more "emotional subjects", I don't like crying in front of people, so consider this just as genuine as me saying it. Please.






Michael, my my Michael. How I love you. I remember having class with you-oh the fun of accounting and institute. Thank you for being so kind and loving to me. I wish there were more people like you, you always make me smile, and I love seeing you because of that. You are special and I am so happy we are friends. I miss having class with you, playing and joking with you. You have made me better.

By the way, your hugs are awesome!!

Braden, last, but not least. (You weren't planned last my friend, its just how it worked!!)
We met in EFY, we were in the same company a few times. I never had the gut to tell you, that I admire your spirit. You are such a good person. I am happy I can tell you that now, and that I have the chance. Since then, you have become someone better, thank you for living righteously. That day we hung out for forever-I really needed a friend that day. Thank you. Thank you for sharing who you are with me. Thank you for being kind, and happy. I love it!!
