Thankful for friends. The new ones I have met
in Sitka, the old ones I have known since elementary school, the close
ones I talk to weekly & the ones I sometimes go months without
catching up with. Work friends, school friends, coast
guard friends, or family friends. No matter what kind of friend they
are to me, there is a reason I choose to keep them in my life. They are
there for support, encouragement, advice, & entertainment. They
make me laugh, they let me cry, they allow me to vent, & they offer
their honest opinions. I credit some of my closest friends for making
me stronger, pushing me to be better, & keeping me humble &
sane. To all of my friends, Thank You for being some of the many
special people in my life.
