Hello my name is Joshua Jackson and lately I have been relying on my friends for happiness. I have quit social media for a month now and I feel joy that I’ve never felt before. Now I spend more time doing better things like watching movies,reading books,rollerblading,riding my bike and enjoying nature itself. There is this stray cat that always comes by my house and it has baby kittens and me and mom both feed them. I enjoy the company of the cats because they make me happy. I was never a cat person but ever since this black cat that used to visit me everyday at my Nana’s and Papa’s house I’ve started to like their vibe. Animals are great for therapy because every time I would have a bad day at school or just having a bad day. Whenever I see animals they distract me from other things that stress me out. I really want a cat or dog and my mom has thought about me maybe being able to get one by showing myself responsible. I will most likely get a cat because my mom said dogs are too much to take care of. Sometimes I feel like everything in this world is horrible and I always rely on friends to blow off some stress I have. I only have one best friend who really listens and one true friend who really looks out for me to see if I’m doing well. While other people I know just betray my trust and act fake. I used to feel like being alone was a bad thing but actually I love being alone because I’m actually happier. At my school the friend group I was with kicked me from their table and I didn’t know how to deal with my emotions and started to become depressed. The lesson I get from being alone is that you have to be comfortable being by yourself or else you won’t know how to deal with being alone or by yourself in a situation where people leave your side and don’t want to be friends with you. I took some time outside to meditate and realized that God and Jesus are always there to be my friend. I’ve been so focused on all these social media platforms which is why I think it’s good to take a break from devices and spend some time with God and doing better things with your time. I also learned you can’t force people to be your friend and you might be better off without them. I’ve also learned that your true friends will stick with you. Well, whoever I hope you enjoyed this article stay safe and most of all stay positive.
