Slow dancing in a burning room

Here's another late night post.  My internal clock is rather screwed up it seems, huh?  At any rate, I'm here.  I talked to Teckie Wednesday evening after work.  It was one of the first times we've had the chance to really talk since her wedding a few weeks ago.  In several of my previous posts I've mentioned what a great friendship I've shared with Teckie for years now.  Not many people can say that they have a best friend like her.  I'm not going to get into that whole spill, because I could seriously right a book about how awesome she is.  Moving along...she now knows the extent of everything that has taken place over the last month or so.  And I feel such love and support from her.  This is the happiest I've been since she's known me, and to have her notice that really makes me feel good inside.  Despite what everyone thinks, there's only a few people that really matter to me.  Teckie is one of those of course, because NO MATTER WHAT I WANT TO HEAR she'll give it to me straight.  She has given me quite the beating before with her opinion.  Honesty at it's best.

Having a chance to bare my inner most thoughts to her today was a relief.  She's been one of the few people to not view my friendship with Brent from a negative perspective.  Like myself, she believes anyone can change and you can't listen to what everyone else has to say.  Because there's one fact that we can always rely on and that is that people are usually wrong.  After our talk I've heard the last and most important opinion that matters to me.  I am going to give Brent the same friendship I've shared with Teckie.  I believe it'll work out the same way, if it doesn't then you know I will survive.  But for now I'm trusting with all my heart that I'm doing what is right.
