There is a newer friend of mine who has been struggling lately.
I wish he would talk to me about it, but he just sighs and shrugs and says things are hard right now.
He says he feels empty.
This is the kid who makes me laugh all the time. This is the kid who I've come to really care about. Seeing him sad is horrible because I'm so used to him being hilarious. And I can't do anything about it. I can't make him feel better. I try, but there's only so much I can do.
I don't know. I wish I could help. Mr. Powers would say I can't control what people feel. That's correct.
But I hate that helpless feeling. Seeing him sad is really depressing. No joke.
*sigh* Andy, feel better...
Sometimes you just have to let things go. You have to let people go.
It hurts, but pining will do nothing for you. Nothing except hurt you even more, like it's doing now.

I'm supposed to be sledding right now, but my mom is 45 minutes late coming home and taking me.
I'm considering just forgetting about it. But that'd be sad.
Ugh...sad.

March for Life

I am so incredibly excited to once again stand on the steps of my state's capital and protest abortion.
I've done it for years now and I've never gotten tired of it. I get such an adrenaline rush, just by holding up a sign and praying out loud. Maybe it's because I feel like I might actually be making a difference by showing what I believe in (what the Church believes in).
And the funny thing is, I saw the cutest babies today during Mass. They made my day, and made me really wonder whether I could be a nun and not have children. Geez. I also had a really psychic moment- it was awesome. Ask me about it and I'll tell you.
Now I'm really tired. My best guy friend is coming over for breakfast tomorrow, then I have to clean and do homework so I have time to visit my aunt who's stopping by. Ah!
It'll be fun, though.
