I have many supports in my life. The most important one is my family. Without my mom and dad in particular, I can't imagine what my life would be like. They have always been there for me emotionally and finacially. We have such a great relationship, and recently it seems that it is getting stronger. My life has been very stressful the past 6 months, that I have really had to count on them. They have never disappointed me, and my mom is great at giving that tough love speech!
Another support I have are my friends. Unlike my parents, I can tell my friends all the intimate little details that happen in my life. I share so much with them, and they are great for lending an ear when I need one. We have all been friends since 6th grade, so we know each other very well.
The last support I have is my church/faith. I feel that my faith has really carried me the past 6 months. My church family has really been there to pick me up when I felt alone. My parents live 2000 miles away, so I depend on the church for emotional support. With the help of them and my belief in God, I know that there is nothing that I can't handle. I have learned to take everything with a grain of salt and to take everything day by day.
