Adam Pittman: A True Friend

In the top of my page I said I would dedicate my blogs to people every once in a while so I'm going to start with my good friend Adam.

When I met Adam I honestly thought he was annoying. I think I've told him that before, if not, sorry but its true. haha! But as I got to know him more I found that he wasn't annoying but that he was really cool. And then after the death of his father we became best friends. The way he responded to his father's death has always impressed me. At the time I gained no lesson from it but now that I look back I see how awesome it truly was. Rather than be angry and succumb to depression, Adam let this obstacle in life be a tool to make him grow in his relationship with God. I only realized this after I had a bit of an obstacle in my own life. And now I truly look up to him as an example.

Another great thing about him is loyalty. In the latter half of 7th grade and all of 8th grade, I was as annoying as a junior high kid could be. I was a jerk to Adam a lot of the times and was caught up in my own life. He warned me about the paths I was on but I didn't pay attention. Honestly I'm not sure why he didn't stop being my friend right there. As it turned out he was right and I ended up in a place I didn't want to be. But rather than make things worse for me by defriending me, he helped me rebuild my relationship with God. He remained my friend. And for that I am truly grateful.

There are many other things that I could say about Adam and our friendship but it would be far too much to keep your interest and its also getting late. So that will suffice for now. Thanks Adam!

P.S. Brianna don't you dare say anything about bromance lol
