You Shoulda known he would get his OWN post!!!!

On a day when you are supposed to give thanks for things and people that you have in your life, I find myself giving thanks for someone who I no longer have in my life physically. They say some people come in your life to teach things and their stay may only be seasonal. Well, David taught me that things don't have to be perfect, but they can still be beautiful. I miss him everyday and he holds a place in my heart that no one can ever touch. I know he keeps me safe and sane...and because of him I am forever blessed.

David: I don't think you can even believe how much I miss you. Every day, every minute, every second..I am missing you. It's still hard to believe you are gone. It seems like just yesterday we were sitting in the parking lot of that pool party Julian was at spying through the fence, wondering if we should let him stay because it looked a little out of control!! LOL! Man, I miss you. So many things have changed since you've been gone...I find myself meeting new people and not even giving them a chance at being a good friend because I just would rather have YOU back. My heart aches with a pain that I never knew one person could feel. I feel so selfish because I know you are at peace and I know you're in a better place, but I want you back...here with me...with all of us. I know I shouldn't feel that way, but I do. I see people with their best friends out and about or in their little Facebook pictures...and I can't help but be jealous and a little angry because my best friend isn't here anymore...we can't take anymore pictures...I can't call him and tell him how bad my day was. I was just telling Julian the other day about that time we all went to Seikisui (me, you, Coleman, and Espe)...and you ordered the oysters and after you had JUST finished telling us how gross they were Coleman stuffs some in his mouth...we couldn't stop laughing. I miss laughing with you. I even miss fighting with you. I can't help but wonder if you would be proud of the person I am or the person I am becoming. Sometimes I know you wouldn't. But I try to do a little better everyday. I know I'm not the same...and to be honest, I'm kind of a mess. I don't let myself get close to anyone because I'm afraid I will lose them. I even ended some of my closer friendships after you left...I was just too scared. I'm trying though...I'm trying. My heart is broken...sometimes I wonder if it's even still there. If it is, I know it's in a million pieces and it's as cold as ice. I know I should be getting it together by now...I guess I'm still waiting for you to come back and say it was all a joke so I can yell at you and then give you my famous "don't do that shit again, David...oh you're smilin like I'm playin...love you, too." But anyway, I'll stop rambling. But I just wanted you to know how much I love you...and I'm so sorry if I didn't tell you as much as I should have...because God knows you told me every single chance you got that you loved me. I'm sorry for all the time I wasted being mad or upset or jealous...but for every time I was "mad", I hope you know I never didn't care or never stopped loving you. I loved you everyday. I still do. I realized I can't call your leaving a "loss". Because I'm not a loser. There's no way I couldve had someone like you in my life and be a loser. I'm a winner. I won the ultimate prize. Having had you in my life makes me have so much faith in God...because he thought enough of me to place you in my life. I am forever thankful. David, I love you...I miss you...I love you.

"Morgan, you know me so well and I know at this point you know all of my games and you won't take any of my bullshit and that's probably why it can't work. And it makes me really mad. But it's also why I love you so much and why we will always have each other. Now, call and see where Eppie's house is."--David R. Boyd II
