Over the past year Ive learned that life is really about staying humble and paying it forward. While I owe a large part of what Ive gained to people whove come into my life to help me, I owe almost everything to a person who needs not be named that left my life. While she may not be with me now, she remains part of my life whether she likes it or not. If it hadnt been for her I wouldnt be here or have been pushed to where I have came. She is still the best friend Ive ever had and remains my biggest inspiration in life. Sometimes it takes loss to achieve gains. We have to be forced to change or grow and she did that for me. I am the person I am because of her and I love her more now than ever even though shell never now the positive impact she had on my life. It takes an amazing person to leave such a mark on one persons life and give such a gift. I hope the universe finds some way to let her now how much she truly means and how lucky I am to have had her in my life. She may be the reason today is hard but as Ive said before she is the reason I know true love and see beauty in the world. She would be too modest to accept any of this credit but it is a fraction of what I owe her. Another pearl Ive learned: The days you keep your gratitude higher than your expectations, you will have very good days. You will always own my heart no matter where life goes. Also none of this wouldve happened without a group of strangers that took interest in a lost cause kid with no chance on his own and thats no joke. These people made it a personal goal to see me succeed and refused to give up. They gained little from helping me other than gratitude and friendship but treated me like family. I am a lucky guy. I have no doubt left that I experienced a couple miracles too. Strings were pulled somewhere for me for sure. I also know her too well to think she never felt guilt about Archie but she helped make his life better and get him his yard. So I hope someday she knows the good she helped bring to him too. 240.
