Friendship... :)

Today I had a choir contest in Talequah, which gave me lots of much needed quiet time to think. I spent a good deal of time thinking about frienships, and what they mean to me.
There is something indescribably wonderful about friends-- knowing you have someone to count on through thick and thin. I've been through a lot in my life, with losing both my mom and my best friend in the past 3 years; and I know that if it wasn't for my friends, I certainly wouldn't have made it through. I am lucky enough to say that I have some of the best friends in the world. Whether they're old friends or new, we always have the most spectacular times.
One of the best things about Greyson and my friendship, was that we were about to find fun in the most simple things. There was never a dull moment. Grey could always turn a bad situation into a good one, he could always make me laugh. The times we shared are forever in my heart, forever in my memory.
So cheers to your friends, my friends, and the people we'll never know. Cheers to the memories, the laughter, and the love.
Try to be like Greyson-- be friends with everyone, and never have a dull moment.

An Introduction (first post)

This is the very first post we wrote but it somehow got deleted, so we'll just post it again!

Hey everyone,
This is Nina and Rachel, juniors in the small town of Poteau. We started this blog in honor of our dear friend Greyson. Greyson possessed a quality that many people try their whole lives to acquire, which is making the most of each day. At only 16 he lived a more full life than many can say they ever have. The purpose of this blog is to share with everyone Grey's love of life. So this is our joint effort to blog about Greyson, Love, Life, and everything in between.

I need a song.

I'm sure we've all heard a song that just touches us in a way that nothing else ever could. Wether it be a perfect lyric or just beautiful music, it has a way of really connecting with you. It may seem silly but I know after losing Greyson, I began searching for a song. A song that could truly relate to my mix of emotions. And I was pleased to find quite a few. But one night that I can never forget is when, after a particularly rough day of being at the funeral home, myself, Nina, and a few other friends all got together and just reminisced on all our classic 'Greyson Moments'. Towards the end, my beautifully talented bestfriend, plays the most amazing music on the piano. It's absolutely the most wonderful thing I have ever heard..

Nina and I text each other quite often with 'Oh my god, listen to this song.' and the reply is always 'Thats SO perfect!' It can seriously make my day to find a perfect song that fits my feelings, but maybe that's just me being weird.

The band Jimmy Eat World wrote a beautiful song titled 'Hear You Me'. These are a few lyrics; "What would you think of me now, so lucky, so strong, so proud? I never said thank you for that, now I'll never have a chance." I know that Nina, myself, and countless others that knew him best just want to make him proud. None of us had the chance to really understand just what Greyson meant to us until after he was already gone. But we cant look back in regret, that's the farthest from what he would want. We should all just choose to live, I mean REALLY live. Live the life you love and live it to the fullest. Be happy, love fully, and live the Greyson way.
