Supernova

I came across this on facebook today:

Jamie Bennett :Today one of the bright stars in my life went supernova. Thank you for teaching me almost everything I know about the Bible, Nell. We'll meet again!

Wow. "Today one of the bright stars in my life went supernova." I can only assume that his friend Nell died. But what an incredible way to say it. And it makes me wonder, do people see me the same way? Would people consider me to "supernova" when I die? Am I a bright star in someone's life?

Who am I to other people?

I consider who people are to me. And in the last couple months, I have found out who you are to me. I found those who stepped up. During great times of need, you were there, and you held on. I have been told many a time, during a blessing to turn to my friends, because they love me, and that's what they're there for. I found out exactly who I was to turn to. These are my bright stars. My supernovas.

Jillian, My wonderful beautiful friend who looks out for my wellbeing. You are my friend that I go to, or let come to me to open up, the one I feel really comfortable spilling my secrets to. You're the one I go to to laugh with. You're the one who made sure I was eating and you're probably the biggest reason I survived these last couple months. You are my friend who knows how to say words in 11 languages. You are my anthropologist friend. If I ever need to belong, or do girl things, I would go to you.

Cory, I love you. I always will. You are my best friend. You are my Geek friend and gamer friend. And while we don't talk anymore, I will always remember how you were my de-stresser for years. You are my "This is so crazy, no one else cares" friend. You are the one who was always there for me for years, whether you know it or not. You are my non-dramatic, super smart, go-to for software or any other neat things that I know you have in your arsenal." If ever I needed to relax, or feel wanted or like I belong, I would go to you. (and I hope someday, life will be like that again)

Kristen, My super innocent, and yet, not so innocent blonde friend. You who doesn't take sides, and sees the optimism in everything. You are my shopping buddy, and the one I go to when I want to reminisce. You also are one who just listens, and lets me dominate the conversation for HOURS and hours. You are my innocent, almost drama free, shopping buddy who makes life light up. If I ever wanted to talk, or have someone agree that certain people are buttheads, I would go to you

Del Ray, I love you. Not in THAT way... but in a way that will never ever end. You have dealt with me at work, EVERY SINGLE day. You have seen me cry more than anyone else has, and probably ever will. You have given me advice (whether its right or wrong, is another story) for everything and been so patient with me, its not even funny. You are my go to and shoulder to cry on. I don't think I have anyone else to describe as "my shoulder" or my crutch, the one who keeps me standing, even when I try so hard to fall. If I ever need to cry, and feel loved, amongst all the turmoil that i feel from everyone else, I would go to you.

Blake, you are my very very blunt friend who is blunt. You throw everything in my face exactly as it needs to be said. You are he whom i go to for technical help, and to hear what no one else will say to me. If I ever want to know the truth, I go to you.

Danny and Chris, you don't know this, and you probably never will, but you're my life saver. You are my distraction, my cheer uppers. I go to your place unhappy, and leave estatic about life. You are they who amongst all your own life, always seem to make time for me. You were my angels in disguise, the so random people who just make me laugh. ALL.THE.TIME. You are the other reason I have survived the past couple months. You appeared out of nowhere , and now I never want to let you go. You were definitely the answers to my many pleading prayers. I never leave your place feeling unhappy. If I ever want life to feel normal, and forget everything, I would go to you.

Alyse, My upstairs neighbor. You wandered in when I needed a friend, then I pushed you back out, and wandered in again. You are my geek girl. Someone who shows me that being a girl who is a geek, can be awesome. When I grow up, I want to be like you.

Amy, You.... understand. You know. You saw, and you helped. While we didn't talk alot during my period of sadness, but I consider you a great influence in my
