How Friends Help Me Stay Healthy and Happy

I am so fortunate to have a great family, very patient and self-sacrificing parents, an expressive sister who is down to earth, an athletic and genius of a brother (who can be annoying sometimes) who can out do anyone if he puts his mind into it. They give me a safe and constant solid foundation to grow and explore without ever feeling I'm all alone in the world.

But over the years I've found my friends give me a different channel for self expression. They help me go through the growing pains, knock me out of my senses when I need and lift me up to give me hope when I'm just not sure if there's light at the end of the tunnel. And when I so need to divert my attention to stay out of trouble, they are there for that. We learn from each other's successes and failures. We agree on some things and disagree on others but in the end we remain respectful and always have each other's best interests at heart. They make me laugh and cry at the same time, but mainly laugh a whole lot over silly things.

I wouldn't know what to do if I didn't have a few good girlfriends and guy friends. Thanks guys, you know who you are.

Love,
Lisa.
