Something worthless but priceless

I was thinking earlier today that there are things in life that are worth absolutely no money but they're worth completely everything to some people. To me, love, God and friendship stand out the most in my life. I think this of love because maybe some people try and buy love but it ends up being fake love or love that doesn't last. Love is worth everything to me because without it, it would be hard to live a happy life or a peaceful life. Second, I think God is worth everything thing and more! My relationship with Him is special and no one will ever take it away. Not a single soul out there could buy God so He is, in a sense, worthless but priceless. Last but not least, friendship. Friends are something I think humans couldn't survive without. Friends are loyal and caring people in my life and I would be nothing without them (as you could kinda tell from some of my previous posts). Again, they are worthless but priceless! If you think something is worthless but priceless, post a comment about it. I'd like to see your opinions!

What can you do when the only one who can stop your tears is the one making you cry?

So today I sent an email to Mandy. I told her I was sorry for the things I'd done and that I really did care about about her. She replied by saying that she was sorry too. Then I thought something: What can you do when the only one who can stop your tears is the one making you cry? What I mean is Mandy was 'making me cry' by making me (not purposely) hurt and she stopped the hurt by forgiving me. See, my point is, best friends are like that: they do something that 'makes you cry' and then 'wipe away your tears' and tell you it's gonna be alright. I feel so much better knowing Mandy has forgiven me and apologized too. I feel better knowing she's given me a second chance. I hope we never fight this bad next year because I've missed her so bad this year. I care about her so much. I hope this is the last time I post something revolving the conflict between Mandy and me but if it isn't, that won't be fun.

Port Hardy

Well lately my posts seem a bit depressing so I decided to brighten the mood with this post. In just 4 days, some of our youth group (11 of us) are going down to Port Hardy, on a missions trip. This is the third year our youth group is going down there but this is my first year going with them. While we are there, we are doing a Vacation Bible School for the kids. A VBS is where the kids come to the church and get to play games, make crafts and, above all, learn more about God. This year our VBS is a Hero Headquarters theme where "Kids join forces with God!". I signed up to be one of the super heroes in the skits. I also get to do crafts with Beth. I'm really excited about going there! I get to meet all these kids and I get to help them with their faith and grow in mine as well. I'm really glad I got this opportunity to do this because 1. my summer was boring anyway and 2. it will be extremely fun and exciting and I can't wait to teach kids about God!

Hope I'm not being a bad friend!

Today, I was texting Mandy because I was bored and nobody else was replying to my texts. We started off just by chatting away and then Dave came into the picture. Here is how our conversation went (sorry for any sappyness you might find!(M=Mandy, B=Brook))
M: ugh! I almost cried when i found out that he was in my class again. idk how i'll handle him for another year! but i hav gail with me which is a gain!
B: When dave told me he was in ur class i felt really bad
M: for him or me?
B: Both
M: he shouldn't get any sympathy
B: i don't have a prob with him. it's ur fight
M: u were the one who kept callin him a jerk! oh i c! u do like him again!
B: I did call him a jerk, yes, but then i realized he was just hurtin too. And no i do not like him in that way again
B: Who am i kidding? I do like him!
M: brook, he called dme a bi*** among tons of other crap... i cant handle him anymore!
M: knew it.
B: Look I'm sorry okay!!! But i had nothing to do with him callin u a bi*** or whatever and im sorry i like him, okay, even tho i kno he will never like me back cuz he still likes u!
M: he's definetly not as nice as he seems. i never thought he cud be this nasty
B: so did i but even tho i thought i hated him for that, i didnt
M: i can read u like a book. when u said u didnt like him anymore, i knew it wasn't true but no matter what i still love you
..........
And then we continued talking about other things. Anyway, I was curious so... (D=Dave)
B: Hey dave. Can i ask u a question involving mandy?
D: Sure go ahead
B: Have u ever called mandy a bi***
D: Yeah i did, when i was really mad at her, and if your gonna think about it you'll understand why i did
B: ok. can i ask one more but u dont have to answer if u dont want to?
D: Ok sure
B: do u still like her?
D: Not even close
B: K just wonderin
..........
And our conversation ended there. I was wondering if I was a bad friend for not siding with Mandy and liking Dave. Like, I don't think that's really fair but would a good friend hate him??? I really don't know! Help?
