Billy said the nicest thing that anyone one has ever said to me, last night when we were laying in bed. The conversation that brought it on was, I was talking about how I was scared of everything, from growing up, to dying, to my GED, just everything..then he said this… “You are the strongest person I know. Even if it is some sort of bravada…that’s courage too. Just a different kind. Sometimes I think that’s even more difficult – to be afraid of something and then do it anyway. And you do that all the time. No one would ever know unless they knew the things you whisper to me at night. I’ve seen you grow so much and become so much braver. You forget that sometimes…you concentrate on the fear instead of on the fact that you overcome it, all the time.”
