I'snt it swell? Life that is. Well i guess its not all the time. Recently school has ended, and i see that freeing up more time for me to write =] I like to write, it lets me release, i just havent been able to type everything lately lol. Life can be hard at times. Recently it has been hard for me. Very hard. But im trying to move on, forget about it for now, and hope that something new and better comes along, even if only for a little while. Cross Country has just started, and go figure, my leg is still a piece of dump. So all ive been doing is biking...A lot...like 15-20 miles a day. And of course its good for my triathlon training, (i have a triathlon in July), but still, i Love running, and i miss it =[
I guess as crappy as life can get sometimes, someone is always there to pick you up. To my friends, I Love you guys and i am not to sure where i'd be without you all right now. It's been rough lately and have had a lot of help from a lot of people, some more then others. Id like to thank Alex, Tom, Marissa, Mary, Kristin, Donna and Jennifer. You guys have helped me so much recently, and i really couldnt have made it through this tough time without your help.
More then anyone, though, i want to thank my dad. Until recently, i had such a hard time understanding what i did wrong. But he took some time out of his day to write me a lenghty email at work, and it really made me see the light. Because it seemed like he had been down the road before. He has given me hope when there really didnt seem to be any at all.
"Your life will go on Beej. Things will get better. It will take some time, in all likelihood, and it will take some work. Above everything else, remember your respect for her and your respect for yourself. Keep your head up high and roll with the punches."
It really did help me, and im not so sure why. But it made sense to me, and i appreciated it so much. It may have brought a tear or two to my eye thinking about everything, but i appreciated it.
I guess the point to this post it to tell everyone that life does go on and that there is always a brighter side. Somewhere, someone cares about you, even when they may be the unlikliest person or the last one you expect. The journy of life is a long and winding path, but through the strength and knowledge of you AND your friends, it will be overcome. But one must always remember to keep their friends close, because they are the ones who will be there in your time of need. Never stray to far from them, because i have learned that at some point you will need them. And luckly, my friends were there. No matter what the world may throw at us at times, our friends will help us through it. That is, our real friends.
I cannot say i do not miss it, because it would be the biggest lie of my life. But im trying to have fun and not think about it. All i can do is hope and pray that it will get better. And i believe that it will get better in the near future, and some day be back to the way it was.
Yours,
BJ Nelson
