Today is day 3 of my visit to Tucson, AZ and I've had alot of time to myself and I've also had a chance to spend a few moments with a select few members of my family. Over the last few days I've had alot of time to think about the simple things in life such as emotional/physical health, friends, family, future goals, and Love.
Today was definitely a real eye opener in regards to friendship because I learned that sometimes it's not a matter of how long you've known someone that makes the friendship strong but it's also the feeling of trust, mutual respect, unselfish love that people share with one another that builds strong friendships over time. This was a lesson that I had already learned before but was relived today/this morning when I spoke with someone whom I consider to be a good friend with great potiential. We were talking about his wedding, of which I am supposed to be one of the groomsmen when he made a statement that really caught me off guard. He said, "I wanted to know if you would be one of my best men? My fiance was the one who sent out the letters to people and she assumed that I would want the people that I knew the longest to be my best men/groomsmen but I really would rather it be the people that I'm closest to..." To me this definitely was an honor because I've only known this guy for just 3 years but I can definately say we share a common respect for one another and level of trust that I don't have with many other people. Soo Cheers to that.
Also I've had a chance to miss people. I know there are times when you really don't want to be bothered by some people, while other times you really don't want to be without the company of others... But today, I really began to think about the small things (there's that theme once again) that I miss about people that I never really noticed/ or thought that I would miss. There is this one person that I began to find myself slowly missing since I've been here over the last 3, now going on 4 days... And the part that I miss the most is her smile. I know it sounds silly but some people just have a smile that can light up a room, change your mood when you're sad, and/or bring comfort to you at times when you are feeling uneasy. Well, this smile that I miss is definitely all of the above!! I really just can't explain it, I just don't have the words to describe it in such detail that would do it proper justice. So for now I will just call her smile,... Beauty (hey, its a working title for now :-P... They say Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and from the way I see things, her smile is anything but shy of the meaning).
Hey, maybe it's the heat out here but I really think that I may blog more often.
