truth versus fact

Sometimes we wonder whether the words "truth" and "fact" have the same meaning. For me...

Fact tells me that friendship needs to be cultivated through interaction and time.
Truth tells me that the friendship is and will always be strong eventhough the odds are against us at times.

Fact tells me that you can keep it inside and no one will know what's going on.
Truth tells me to look beyond all that and still want to be there for you no matter what.

Fact says that as long as you don't complain, moan or groan... you're fine.
Truth says whether rain or shine, to still pray for you and hug you when I can :)

Fact reminds me that I only have a limited capacity to care for a friend.
Truth says that once a friend, always a friend, screw the limits.

Truth is... no matter if you don't tell me what's going on in life, or whether you are around or not at school... whether you're happy or sad... I will always be there for you as your teacher, friend and supporter in anything you want to do in life.

Keep smiling and continue to be the cheerful, active and special person that you are, Soph. I wish I could do more than just keep you company on MSN. You want an outing? I'll definitely give you one now that I have a car (: So watch out cuz I'll be driving by with a gang of crazy teens and we're gonna have a fun-filled day that will chase the blues away!

Until then, take care. I love you very-berry much! You'll always be someone special in my life. God bless you, kiddo!
