I was thinking about how each person's life is like a metaphorical "play." Each stage in life has a new play, possibly a new cast, a new setting, new props. You're always gonna be the lead, but your supporting cast is just as important. In some plays, certain people stand out and then the next play maybe they're fading into the background, their part may not be as big as the play prior, new people stand out.
She was a huge part last time. She was my everything. I leaned on her for every single conflict I had. I talked to her on the phone every single day. I cried to her almost every single one of those days. Now I can barely get a lousy text. I just want her back in my supporting cast. But I guess sometimes things change and they might not ever be as big in your life as they once were.
I have a supporting cast, much stronger than before. People that really truly care about me. The twits, my goodness, they've been my rock this year so far. Four other people just a single text away, in a heartbeat at least one of them is there to help. They get me, they don't judge me, they know me, but they still love me.
There's two other actresses that have played huge roles so far. Emily and Courtney. They're my sisters at heart. Emily is pretty much my twin. We text like 583465874 hours a day about everything. We laugh about the most random stuff and she's always always always there to listen. Last night she told me she loved me to my anus and back. Yeah, she's a weirdo haha, but I love her to death. :) Courtney is one of the few people that I can text on a bad day and she'll never just ignore me. We talk and laugh and I'd stick up for her until forever and I know she'd do the same for me.
I guess I'm going to have to stick it out hoping I'll never lose these people and maybe those ones that have faded, will come back clearer soon.

i LOVE this analogy.
it's so true, and really got me thinking about the play of my own life. this was very inspiring. and maybe the people are just behind the scenes in your life now. maybe the cast wasn't where God the Director wanted them. they aren't gone though, just not on stage. they are still there and always will be. and you have awesome co-stars right now :) you are blessed.
beautifully said. love you, dan :)
Rachel- thank you for helping me to further realize that those people aren't lost. They're just behind the scenes. God is always in control and I have to lean on him more now. I hope through our blogs we become friends :)
Sammi- thank you babe. Thank you for everything today. I know I'll always have you and know you'll always have me.
