They are away for months and we all have those people that we can lean on. SHowing that real desire and care for each and every person so that they know they are loved. College is a tough place and I have definitely had my tough times and it has been my family here at Baylor, especially in the Whatever, that has made me feel wanted. When you can't stop feeling like you are going to annoy the people closest to you, they look through your flaws and see the creation that God has put on earth for everyone. The Whatever has become my home and I am daily thankful for each and everyone that has come into my life. They have had an outstanding affect on the man that I am today and they continue to constantly lift my up. I could not imagine where I would be without them. I love them all and it is weird being away from them for even a week.
