life lessons

Every person should have someone that they can turn to if they need help or someone to talk to. Some people are only blessed with one while some are blessed with more than one. In my case I have been blessed with more than I knew about. During my recent struggles I was opened up to two more people that God blessed me with. My uncle buddy and aunt Janet. My aunt is my fathers sister. But I decided that I was going to run away but while doing so I did not know where I was going to go. So I called my aunt Janet to see if I could go to her house. And of course I did not expect to be able to just go over and them to not ask what was wrong. But what I did not expect was for them to care so much about me for them to get my dad to agree to let me stay the night their and them for him to come over the next day and sit down all four of us and to work through it and try to fix things up. Because they did not want to see that happen to my father or me. I was blessed with a very wise uncle. He was the one who really helped us get through the night and to figure out what to do with some help from my aunt of course her motherly knowledge was also a great help. He has helped my father out before when my parents where splitting up. And now he has become the person I turn to if I ever need any advice. He knows what to tell me and what I need to do. He does not worry about if it will upset me because he knows that it is good for me to hear it, and that it will really work and fix the problem. He really helps me with the little things all the time but when it comes to the big things he save my life. He has done so much for me that is it hard to say how grateful I am to have him in my life. But never the less. We all need that person in our life that we can turn to whether it be a friends co-worker, neighbor, family member, or a professional.
