Being Thankful.

Currently in my life a lot of very important aspects are turning upside down. My relationship with Nick is over and solely based on friendship now, he is hanging out with other girls, etc. My family and I are moving. School is getting way harder, and the new semester has just begun. College is coming closer every day. I'm getting put under pressure to get a job to make my own money and pay for my own things. I have copious responsibilities, being the oldest, and I am juggling homework, my music career, school in general, family, a social life, and I have so much other stuff on my plate. But then I started thinking about how fortunate I am. I am able to do all of these things because of all the people who love and support me. My relationship with Nick is over most likely for the best, and since we broke up not only have I grown closer to him as a friend, but I have been less distracted from God, and I am able to devote myself to him, the one who loves me more than I can even imagine. I have been less distracted by him when doing homework, and have had more time to spend with my family again. I am not saying Nick was EVER a bad thing, because he DEFINITELY was not. He is the most amazing guy I know, and whoever ends up with him is one lucky girl. I love that we have been able to maintain a healthy friendship through this. He is and always will be my best friend. Also, I have been hanging out with my best girlfriend in the whole world, Andrea. She is such an awesome friend, and I love her to death! I tell her everything, and now that we are both single(we both became single around the same time..ironical) were able to hang out so much more, and help each other in our journey to come closer to God. :) Now me my mom, Justin and Jenna are moving! I am so excited, Our house is so perfect! I love it! I am so thankful that we will be living just the four of us again. I now our relationship as a family will grow so much stronger. I am thankful for my mom. She is such a strong woman, and she is so beautiful, intelligent, and has this glow about her. She puts up with SO much from me. I give her a lot of crap at times, and she still loves me. School has been really hard with Show Choir season just starting. I complain about having to be out until 9:30-10pm on a school night, but I have to be thankful for it is SUCH an opportunity to be with an amazing group of singers. Not everyone can be in this group, and I was selected to be. I guess lately, I have found myself complaining about every little thing I possibly can. But I stopped to think, everything I am complain about aren't all completely negative. Every one of my problems I'm dealing with all really have a positive outlook. Nick and I have a closer relationship now then before. My family and I are going to be together as four once again, happy under one roof! Show Choir is so much fun, and we rock the competitions. At school I have so many ore opportunities then other schools may offer. And most importantly over everything else, lately I have made time for God. The reason why everything is starting to look up id because of him. He is the love of my life, and my best friend! Out of everything I am thankful for, Jesus is all the way at the top. So thank you for the cross, and the life you gave. Hallelujah Jesus, you are the everlasting light. I love you all!
