Being Thankful For Someone Else's Pain!

Some of my friends I have known forever and some not so long.

But I have been given friends that I truly do love!

They are there to support me through thick and thin,

to encourage and educate me when I am in need.

I am grateful for all they do for me!

(And I can be so needy sometimes!)

But I am also very very grateful that they share their needs as well.

My life never looks so bad when I am listening to a friends struggles.

I can feel for my friend and give support and love, and somehow that helps lessen my load.

I may or may not ever go through what they are enduring but I am learning.

I feel so badly for what others have to wade through. It may or may not be bigger or more traumatic than my Drama, but knowing that someone that I care about is dealing with something, helps me through my own.

I am grateful that I have friends who know I love them and I will support them all the time. I am grateful for the pain and Drama in others lives.

And I am so glad that we are all needy sometimes!!!
