I just returned from watching fireworks with my family (consisting of mom, dad and younger brother and sister). I think it made me really grateful for them. I'm very fortunate to have a family who loves and supports me and just wants the best for me. As difficult as things are for me right now, it would be so much worse if I didn't have them to lean on. It helps so much to have people who would do anything to help you. I know they'll always be there for me. They've proven that time and time again. I really hope they won't have to save me from my mistakes again, but I know they would if I asked.

Sadly, I've learned in the past two months that those people I considered close friends aren't as close as I thought they were. They all say they wish they could do something to help, but I really don't think they would. Most of them didn't even notice when I disappeared for over a month. That hurt.. I haven't even talked to most of them since. I have no need for fair-weather friends.
