STORY STARTERS

Everythings changes.


It was one of those days when everything seemed to go wrong. I was always bad, I felt that everybody avoided me and I was lost in my mind. I felt that I couldn’t speak to anybody. But one day, a friend said to me:

-Days ago, I saw you very sad. What’s happening? Have you got any problem with anybody?
-No, I haven’t. I’m well, don’t worry.
-Please, don’t lie to me! Your eyes don’t say the same. Your eyes say that you have got a big problem.

In a few words, I felt that she was trustworthy and I told her my problem. She listened to me very carefully. Then, she told me her opinion and she said to me:

-Don’t worry, if you ever need help, you must know that I’m always here and that I’ll always be your friend. Do you know what friends are like? They are at good and bad moments of your life.
-Yes, I know. But days ago I felt distanced with people and I felt that nobody accept me.
-I repeat you: don’t worry. Every problem has a solution.

A few days later, she started meeting new friends and solved the problems with her other friends. She was better with everybody. That returned her her hapinnes.
