Megan

I've been listening to a lot of Bon Iver and youtube covers today, so I'm in a very reflective mood, which is perfect for writing. Today, I'm dedicating my thoughts and heart to Megan. Tiny, delicate Megan. She is a really hard worker, but sometimes she tries so hard that she stresses herself out. Megan has a special place in my heart because she got Will out of his lonely place. She doesn't care what others think--she befriends all, no matter what.
Megan is shy and quiet and keeps to herself. She shows emotion very rarely. But the other day, she came to me for extra help to catch up in Social Studies and ask for help with some concepts she wasn't quite clear on. It went very well, and after, we were talking with her mom. I'm not sure exactly when it happened, whether it had been building and the moment I shared how much I care for her and think highly of her, but I think she finally felt like she had someone at school that she could go to for help, because she hugs me and smiles and laughs often now. The only thing that I truly know in this life is that genuine, selfless love for others will change everything you know.
