Impact

Why I have been thinking about this specific subject so much recently, I do not know.

Recently I have been thinking a lot about people that have truly impacted my life.

Other than my family, there are a couple specific people that have helped shape my life into what it is.

These people mean so much to me. 

There used to be someone who was always in my life, every day, then it stopped...

Honestly, I can't even tell you what happened.

I don't know if I will ever have the kind of friendship I had with this person ever again.

They knew anything and everything about me.

Then we started to get older and we started growing apart.

To this day, I still think of this person almost every day.

As weird as this sounds, I think it has made me so that it's hard for me to really let people in

(Despite a few people that will forever remain my good friends for many reasons), because I was so hurt when our friendship started to change.

If I could go back and fix some things, I would.

If I had not been as close to this person as I was, I truly believe that I would be a different person.

I don't mean for this to sound depressing at all, really. I am just remembering and appreciating the 

people who have come into my life.

Things may never be the same, but I will always love her.

So I guess what I am trying to say is to make sure and appreciate the people in your life, because

they are there for a reason. Nothing happens by chance.

One day that person could be gone in an instant, and you'll never get the time you had with them back.

So treat your loved-ones right, and don't take them for granted. 

"You don't know what you got 'till it's gone."

Always make sure that you not only tell them, but show them that you love them.
