"Life's all about moments of impact, and how they change our lives forever." ♥
My world is impacted every day of my life. New events unfold to change my outlook on everything! When I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING! I worked for New York State Parks once at Niagara Falls State Park. Pretty rad; met some awesome people who changed my life. Working with them for 4 years was beyond a blessing. These people really felt like home. Then one summer everything changed.
A new girl started working with us & would come up with crazy tales, but thats not the best part about it. I never talked to the girl more than a "hey, how are you?" & she immediately started telling my friends of the past 4 years stories I "told" her about them.
Suddenly home didn't feel like home & suddenly the people I felt so blessed to know were hurtful. The one girl accused me of telling the new girl she was a lesbian to "watch out." First off I'd known "K" wasn't a lesbian, because we would always talk about boys & secondly, why would I tell some random girl such a random tale? From that day on "K" wanted nothing to do with because it was a new girls word against an old friend. I cried for awhile & then realized if "K" was going to believe some new random girl over me that was the kind of person she was & wanted to be.
That same summer our bosses had got into a butt load of trouble for stealing! Tons of money. They were caught after I had already quit for the season because I didn't even want to be around a bunch of girls who hated me just because. Months after our bosses were caught I was talking to an old park friend "S" who was telling me about how "K" was going around telling everyone I was apart of the stealing. My heart dropped & burst into tears. Why was this girl, no this WOMAN being such a too faced, nasty person. She wasn't the girl I thought she was when we'd met in 2004.
Now its March 2012 & that summer, them moments of impact changed my life forever...
I don't let people in the same. I miss being a 12 year old girl playing with real friends because drama came along. & I still wonder what went on in "Ks" head to change her into the monster she became? She does great things for the WNY area with one of the best volunteer companies around. She just seemed like such a perfect friend.
Ah, I've met some great people in my life & even if lies tore us apart, I'm blessed to have met them.
Welcome to real life.
