Each year for Christmas, I have been able to venture to my parent's house and celebrate the Christmas Season with them. It has been wonderful knowing that I will be welcomed with open arms and a warm place to stay during the time I'm there. I'm able to bake with my mom and work alongside my dad. We have many memories together, so many in fact that I won't bore you with details.
One thing that is for certain, I have been busy with parties and events and meeting up with people. It always seems that my time down in California seems so long but so short at the same time. There are days when I don't think they are going to end and then there are days that go by too fast for me to think. However, this trip down, I was able to meet up and chat with a high school friend. We lost touch for a bit and hadn't even seen each other since high school but that didn't seem to affect us at all.
It is sometimes like that; (maybe thanks to facebook, it was a bit easier) two people/friends who haven't seen each other for awhile can spot each other a mile away and seems like years haven't passed at all. Sure we've changed, grown up, got college degrees and are out in the "adult" world but in the grand scheme of things we are still the same people now that we were back then.
It has been said "Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for awhile and leave footprints on our heart. And we are never, ever the same". This is true about this person, this person has impacted my life and I didn't know it until recently, and has left a big footprint that I will always remember their gentle spirit, their kindness and an all around good and solid person. I'm thankful that they are in my life.
Well to end this entry, I want everyone to remember this, "those who have impacted your life the most will always find a way to stay in your life forever".
