I have been friends with this guy for a while now. He has always had a troubled life with drugs and alchohol at a young age. Ever since he was little he has struggled.

I always make fun of him for drinking to much or doing drugs. (since I never have and never will)

He always kind of blew me off because all we were doing is joking around. And then he has a very bad temper and I would call him hard headed and we would joke around about that.

I did this nearly everyday because that is the kind of guy I am. Always want to make someone laugh so I tell jokes.

Today he told me that I am one of his only true friends. He said that he isn't hanging out with any other of his friends because they drink, smoke, do drugs. He said he doesn't want to go down the road they are.

He also is finally working hard and he has no temper anymore. And he thanked me for bugging him all the time.

So now my friend is going down the right road. And it makes me feel good.

Thank God Brandon you stood by him and never gave up. God is the same way with us all. He stays with us even when we seem to go the wrong way and just slowly guides us back to the right road. This is wonderful to read and God bless you both.

Thanks, it was never intended either. Just kind of happened.

It was God's Intention Brandon That is what counts.... Thanks for being his Friend.....
