Isn't it amazing how you get to know all of your friends?
I mean, just looking at myself as an example, I moved to the other side of the country for college. I have gotten to know so many people, some of whom have become some of my closest friends, and I never would've known that they even existed if I hadn't moved out here, and God hadn't brought them into my life.
I've met people from all various walks of life, from all over, not just the United States, but the world.
Seriously. I have friends from all over the United States--Tennessee, Wyoming, Colorado, Nebraska, Illinois, Minnesota, Texas, California, Virginia...Then I have friends from China, South Korea, Africa, Latvia, Bulgaria and Australia. Before I met them due to various circumstances, I never even knew they existed.
And yet, now they are people who I love with my whole heart, care about, and can't believe I haven't been friends with them my entire life.It feels like I have.
I don't know, maybe that doesn't seem like a big deal to you guys, but it just seems more and more incredible to me, the more I think about it. So incredible that all of these people who come from different backgrounds, different families, different states, different countries, different continents, can come together and build meaningful friendships and relationships. It makes me think of all of the amazing friends I have made, and how much I love them. It brings a smile to my face, makes me feel blessed, and oh-so-lucky...
