A conversation

I don't know what people think can happen when you have a simple conversation with them. Today is my best Friends 20th Birthday. Three years ago I remember going to school being so excited for it to be a Gold day. I walk into the choir room and taking my cello and putting it up. I walk to the top of the room by a door and some file cabinets. Seeing my group of friends all there and then seeing him just sitting there not on his computer, but looking over his little brothers shoulder to watch him play a video game. I can't remember what I got him that day for his seventeenth birthday, but I was glad to see him. That next summer in May we were laying on the sand playground at the Munjor elementary school. I remember asking him what he would do with out me. He rolled over onto his side and said, "Even though I will miss you, Life will still go on, just without you by my side like you have been this year." I just remember thinking my answer to that question. I would die without you. Anyways, that conversation just sticks in my head because of his answer, and how I wish that I could tell him my answer that I have for him. Even though my life is like crap right now, and my parents don't really give a care about me, and my coworkers are like they can only care about themselves. Today I got online on Facebook and noticed that he was on. Just a simple conversation with him made me feel some hope inside of myself letting me know that I do have people out there for me. They may not be the people that I am interacting with, but they are people that I once loved. That I once had a hug from, that once gave me some words of encouragement. Even though I may not love him like I once did, he is a person that reached out to me when I needed help and even though it may not look like he is serious, he listens and understands. Even from miles away. Everyone needs someone like that in their lives. Always.
