Courage is a very important word to me. It's the one word that I've kept in my mind in order to stay sane. Courage is the one thing that keeps people alive. Some people have it welling inside of them, and these people are fine examples. You'll notice that I use the word couage a lot. These people deserve a better word to describe who they are. Unfortunately, words cannot describe their love and affection as well as the immensity of their hearts.
Nora is my best friend in the whole world. We didn't really get to know eachother until Freshman year in band camp, but our lives have been full of fun, games, parties, internet chat on ICQ, etc. since then. She's reassured me that I'm not crazy more than once...and kept me from going crazy a few times. She's the love of my life...literally. :)
Ryan is one of my closest friends. If it weren't for him, I'd have given up on this page long ago. He's the reason that I had the courage to write the first chapter of my story and made sure that I didn't give up. It's amazing how some people can have courage for things and just rub off on you. Ryan is definately a source of courage for me.
Oli is someone that I just very very very recently met on the internet, through ICQ. He's one of the sweetest, most understanding people that I've ever met...and we only just met a few days ago! His courage is so utterly amazing. We've clicked. In the short time that we've known eachother, we've shared nearly every part of our lives, and we're closer than I am to most people, I think. Too bad he's in England...
Richard is a melancholy sort of person that always has a smile on his face. Ironic, isn't it? Richard has a warm heart and soft shoulder to cry on. I've used it. I don't know what I'd do without my Chard. He's a sweet heart, and he's a beautiful person, even if he doesn't want to admit it. He is. Go to his site and tell him so. :)
Ana is a wonderful person. I've known her on the net for about two years, and her courage amazes me. I don't talk to her much anymore, but I still think about her and how she's so strong. Ana, if you come upon this, don't think that I'm just kissing your arse.
