There is so much to say about
Emily. I don't think any words
could ever explain what a beautiful
person she was. There are so many
questions as to why or how...no one
will ever have the answers. I
believe that God put Em in my life
for a reason, and I will forever be
grateful for that.
Emily and I met through
volleyball in eighth or ninth
grade. She was definitely one of a
kind! We have been through so much
together. She is my best friend for
many reasons. It is not only that
we have experienced many different
life lessons together, but Emily
knew me for me. She understood me
completely and knew everything there
was to know about me. There was
never a time when I felt like I
couldn't be myself around Em because
I knew that she would never judge me
for a second. She listened to me when
I needed her. We trusted each other
with every word we said. Emily also
encouraged me and knew when
I needed to be encouraged. Emily's
famous words to me were always,
 "Keep having faith because there’s
is a reason for everything. God
knows what He is doing, even if you
can not see it." What separates
Emily from my other friends was she
knew when I was falling away from
God and she always helped me right
back up. I will forever be grateful
for the blessing God has given me.
Emily Jo has changed my life. She
made me realize what a true friend
is and how important friends are.
She also taught me to chase my
dreams, and never give up, no matter
how hard life gets. I now feel like
a new person with a totally
different view of life. I realize
how important my life is and how
lucky I am to have it. I am
supposed to love every person in my
life, and somehow make an impact in
their lives, like Emily did mine. |
