The thing about life is this:

It. Goes. On.

Unfortunately, it can take a while to realise this when it's all falling away.

That's why we have friends.

Friends notice. Friends help. Friends smile.

And that's what makes the difference.

Because when you know that there is someone out there, that there is someone who cares, then you know this:

You're not alone.

Someone cares when you suffer, someone actually feels hurt to see you in pain.

And that's when you know that you've been blessed, blessed that there is someone who cares.

"How lucky I am to have known someone who was so hard to say goodbye to."

How lucky I am to have known someone who cares.
