You were there.

Dear Brian,

Life is good for the most part. I had somewhat of a break down on Tuesday because at Institute the question of whats more important church or family came up and as you know I cant answer that question. So after class I broke down, I didn't know what to do, I still don't. Do I go to church and make my family unhappy and fight them every single step of the way? Or do I stop fighting and give into what they want me to do? I know the second one isn't what most people would do but I am sick of fighting them, that's all i have done for the past 8 years is fight with my family about the church. I just dont know what to do.....


So, school is going well except for my History class, I cant seem to stay awake for some reason. I hate it! I love History its one of my favorite subjects and yet i sleep during class soooo annoying!

The boy department isn't really worth talking about.... I know I know, you want stories but I dont really have any for ya, sorry bud.

Anyways I found another song that reminds me of you, its called "You Were There" it's in the movie Simon Birch. Here are the lyrics:

Time passes, the world changes
But I'm still the same ole' kid
And your jokes still bring me laughter
As if you still were here
And it hurts
When I smile
'Cause my heart still remembers
When you were around

'Cause you were there
When no one was
Just when I thought nobody cared
You showed me love
'Cause you were my friend
You always told me
And I am still here
Because you were there

So precious, small treasures
A time when truth was innocent
True friendship, was all we were after
A place where kids could still be kids
And it hurts
But I'm glad
'Cause at least I was blessed
To have you as my friend

'Cause you were there
When no one was
Just when I thought nobody cared
You showed me love
'Cause you were my friend
You always told me
And I am still here
Because you were there

You're my best friend
And there are no accidents
God has a pland for everyone
And he brought you in my life
To show me what a true friend was

'Cause you were there
When no one was
Just when I thought nobody cared
You showed me love
'Cause you were my friend
You always told me
And I am still here
Because you were there

This song is so true, every joke that was made, every time we laughed every time we cried ever time we hund out is still a vivid memory and I can bring it to mind when ever i choose to which bring me such joy. I miss ya buddy! Life just doesnt seem the same without you here to talk to every night. I know I should move on and what not but it is so hard. You were my best friend and no one comes close to filling those shoes, and its not that I am not letting people, its that no one can do it at least not anyone I have met yet, unless they are hiding who they really are. I think about you almost daily and cant help but wish you were here. I love you Bri! I hope you always remember that. Without you coming into my life I wouldnt be who I am today, and I thank HEavenly Father daily for bring you into my life. Things dont just happen Hevenly FAther has a plan for all of us and I see that now. Because you opened my eye to it! LOve ya more then anyone will ever be able to understand.


Always Smile!
Love,
Teasha
