Feeling a bit down...
I have been feeling a bit down. For some reason, its like I am losing friends who I really enjoy talking to and they don't tell me why. I never did anything wrong. As a young teen, it hurts me and bothers me. Randy's music helps me a lot. Its like when I listen to him, it helps me empty my mind of why I am feeling down in the first place. I would like to thank y'all for being such kind friends here on Randy's site. I really do appreciate it. As I said before, I wish I didn't have to lose friends I enjoyed talking to without being left a reason why, but I do apologize. On the other hand, at least I still have friends who share such great friendships with each other and I appreciate it, and I am happy that Randy's music helps a lot too, and having God in my life is wonderful. Thank y'all :)

I know the members of this site will be here, although they don't really know you. All you have to do is post your problems, or thoughts, and they answer ...Great people...
I actually agree with you. Even though they don't know us well on this site, but when someone posts a problem or thought as you mentioned, they are real nice to help out and I sure do appreciate it too and thank them :)

I have lived several years...I have been through what you are going through now..Your TRUE friends will be there for you no matter what..The other ones are know as "Fair weather friends"..Those you can live without...
Hi Jasmin
Are you talking about people on this site or other friends of yours? If it is friends on this site you're talking about...maybe you haven't lost them...maybe they just don't log-in much anymore because the site as slowed down a bit.
I am 51 and have felt the same way you're feeling many times. There's alot of reasons why people lose contact with others and it isn't always your fault...in fact it probably never is. Some people may be having personal problems and aren't in the right frame of mind to carry on friendships...or they just don't seem to want to socialise much...which I think we all feel once in a while. I wouldn't get too down hearted. My advice would be to take the bull by the horns and ask these people if there's something you've done to upset them. I know, if it was me, I would feel much better if I knew the reasons behind it. To be totally honest, apart from my family whom I spend alot of time with, I only have a couple of good friends. If people are only fair-weather-friends, I usually get rid of them, because it's not good for the soul to have people around you who aren't true friends or who are negative types.
I mean friends outside the site. Not here. Friends who I knew for a while now, the ones who I have shared laughter with. The ones who I really enjoyed talking to, sharing stories. I never did anything wrong and they just left. I tried asking them if I did anything, but they won't talk. I am being ignored. But like Cherokey42 that "True Friends" are the ones who stay with you forever, and I rather have them than no friends. At the same time, it hurts when they leave you and having no idea what you did wrong, but having those who are there and understanding what you go through is just great to have those who care and I thank y'all here for being such nice people and sharing a real nice friendship :)

Sometimes our friends kind of "disappear" not because we've done them any wrong, but because they are going through some dark days or storms that get them down. Anyone who has genuine friends is rich indeed. And I've found that the Lord is a true Friend - because He said "I will never leave you nor forsake you." (Matthew 28:20). The thing that makes Randy's website so encouraging - is that there are many friends who are solid gold, and my opinion is because that is the character of the singer they are devoted to.
God bless,
Dr Don Givens
As I said in my Blog, I have God in my life and I truely agree with you. He is ONE that I know will forever be my friend, and I appreciate y'all here on Randy's site as I mentioned before and thank y'all for being such great friends to each other. Having y'all as friends is a pleasure and I thank y'all. And having God in my life is great. Once again, I thank y'all and thank you Dr. Givens for sharing your kind words, I really do appreciate it :)
Take care my friend.
