Change, missing you, and grateful

A drastic change has become present in my life. Due to the problems I have been having with my hip, I've been forced to quit Colorguard. At this point it's come down to surgery or giving up colorguard and giving my body a chance to try and repair it's self. I haven't decided how hurt I am about this happening. As much as I love colorguard, I haven't been happy doing it. I don't know it's because of who I was spinning with, the members, or the lack of two of my favorite instructors. I just never felt like I fit in. I felt like I had one person on the guard who genuinely cared about me as a person. I wouldn't have quit if it weren't for the medical problems. I love performing too much to give it up, but at this point my health is more important to me. Enough about that. It's best not to dwell on what you cannot change right?

Nine months ago I said goodbye to my best friend in the whole world for two years. For the most part I've been okay with him being gone. I've been able to cope... but for the past month I've had a really hard time without him here. He was basically my compass. When ever I was lost and didn't know which direction to go to get back on track, he always knew what to do. What to say. And how to help me. I still get to write letters, but I can't talk to him about my problems. He has more important things he needs to focus on. I need him though. He's basically the one thing in the world that kept me sane, I think that's why I am now slowly slipping into insanity....

All the drama, and the problems that keep popping back up into my life have really been taking a toll on me. But, it has made me appreciate two of my very best friends. And the only two people I have in my life right now, Chase Hargis, and Cory Oliver. I realize that there are quite a few people in the world who really don't life me. And because I say how I feel, and don't bull shit people, a lot of people have a lot of things to say about me. I know that if ever cory and chase are around it, they'll stand up for me if necessary or tell who ever has something to say, to say it somewhere else. They are amazing friends. I know no matter what situation I get myself in, what choices I make, whatever happens, they'll stand by me, pick me up when I fall, and help put me back together when I fall apart. I am very grateful for them.
