The summer of year 2000 to the summer of 2001 was one of the worst times of my life. I was depressed, on the verge of suicide, and I had almost no hope left. I didn't think I could make it until I met five girls in California. Three in one location, two in the other. Their names are Christine, Erinne, Ashley, Erin, and Heather. They talked me through my problems and got me through serious times of depression. I don't think I could have made it without them. Their help is something that I have never been given by anyone else. It was better than a Christmas present; it was better than a brand new computer; it was better than anything anyone could give to another person. It's something that makes you feel lucky to live in this world. I can't begin to add up how much I owe these five girls for all their time and help. You really don't know what kinds of friends you are missing until you meet them. I was watching a TV show a while ago...kinda weird but it had something in there that reminded me of them. The narrator said that of all the gifts god had given us....there was no greater power, than to love another person. These girls took advantage of that and turned my life around. I will never forget them and how they treated me....they treated me like a human being. That's something that I don't recall ever being done to me. I want to thank them with all my heart and say how much I love you girls. Thanks to Christine, Erinne, Ashley, Erin, and Heather. I'll never forget you....
