No one grows through life alone.  Along the way we are introduced to family, we meet strangers and we make new friends.  Some stick around forever while others simply pass through. But each one of these people, whether permanent or temporary, eventually becomes another brick to our foundation. It’s these people that help shape us into who we become.  We learn from the love that we receive. We learn from the mistakes that we make. And we grow from our pain and the pain of those around us. But no one grows alone. Each and every one of us has impacted someone whether we know it or not. So as you continue to evolve and lay more bricks, remember to be thankful for those you met along your way. We are bricks. We build each other up.
