“If you are a dreamer come in If you are a dreamer a wisher a liar A hoper a pray-er a magic-bean-buyer If you're a pretender com sit by my fire For we have some flax golden tales to spin Come in! Come in!” -Shel Silverstein

A Friend Who Knows Me
Out of all the people one Earth, there is only one person that truly knows me. He is my best friend and I can depend on him for anything. Last night, I was stressed nearly till breaking point. There was just too much on my mind, the major thing being homework. I felt like I was running on fumes with hundreds of miles left to go and no fill-up in sight. So, when he texted me that he was going to bed and i told him good night, I was on the verge of losing it. And without me saying anything other than "night," he knew something was up and asked me if I was ok. To which I promptly said no. In a few, short words, I told him what was going on. And as if he knew exactly what I was missing, he asked "Did you talk to the big guy upstairs?" I had forgotten to pray to Heavenly Father for help in the hustle and bustle of the day. I told him thanks for reminding me and that I was calmed down, which was true for the most part. My stress wasn't gone, but I knew I could handle it. And then he said "Wonderful :) Just relax and let the Holy Ghost in. He's a cool guy too." Either he really know me, or the Spirit was guiding him in what to say. Or both. But regardless, I am so grateful for someone who knows me as well as he does. Thanks for the reminder Colt!
