The Happy Thirty: Fall Edition - Day Three

"There comes a point where you realize who always loved you for you. Who was always there for you when you needed it and never left you hanging! Those are people that you need in your life because they proved to you that they need you in theirs." 

I have had a productively, positive Sunday ... yet I am feeling kind of down. While searching through facebook for Lord only knows what, I accidentally stumbled across posts from 2009 and 2010. The posts were so overwhelmingly positive ... quotes about life, love, happiness and positivity. Several people, who I still think fondly of today, responded to the posts acknowledging the positivity and acknowledging my positive energy. Some of the comments and posts from others brought tears to my eyes today. It reminded me of a place I once found myself in. It reminded me of the wonderful people I have in my life. It reminded me of the love and warmth that is still surrounding me to this very day. It was right on time. It was something I needed. In an unexpected twist of events, there was a reason I stumbled across those old posts this evening. 


The quote above was used in one of the posts I once wrote. This quote brought a smile to my face tonight. I am beyond grateful for the friends in my life. I have made several new friends and lost countless others. But there are a few who have remained in my life throughout the years. Throughout my ups and downs. Who have loved me at my best and my worst. Who have laughed with me and cried with me. Who encourage me to be my best self and inspire me to be even greater. These girls may not know how important they are in my life ... and they may not know that I consider them the truest of girlfriends (which are rare and hard to find). But these girls ARE my true friends. And I want to state today that thoughts of them are what make me happy today.


Alison Kurtz. Kathryn Keenan. Michelle Harris. Anne Lee. Erica Johnson. I do not know where I would be without you girls in my life. Thank you for always loving me for me. Thank you for always being there when need it. I need you in my life. And I hope that you continue to need me in yours.
