Everyone has bad days, weeks, or even seasons in their life. Unfortunately, there are those times when things go wrong, and we are at our worst. We say things that are mean or hurtful. We do things that discourage and damage. We get defensive and mistake your concern for unwanted correction.  

All of us need people who will love us through those times.

A real friend is not someone who is only there for the good days but also for the bad ones. 

Some of us are hard to love, but thanks to the people who do it anyway. Thanks for holding on and helping out. Words are not enough to express the gratitude and appreciation we feel for all you do. We could not make it without you.
