Seth

From time to time I get to missing Seth. I'll be thinking about the old Illinois boys and I never forget that he is the one who tries to keep in touch with me most. And I'm proud of him too, for he's come a long way and been through a lot growing up, having conquered all sorts of demons I am sure. In spite of it all too, Seth still has his frank sense of humor and positive outlook on things that always brings me to smile.
Once in a while I think about how two years passed in the middle of high school where we didn't talk at all, and though it seems regretful at first, perhaps it was a necessary break where we had some time to grow as individuals before reuniting as close friends again.
Seth does what he does without the fear of others' judgmental scrutiny, yet he has about him a set of morals that always makes him a very good person, even if he doesn't always see it himself. It's comforting knowing that he would never pass judgment onto me. Seth is the only kind of true friend I need in life. I can say that with assurance about any of the Illinois 6 which other than Seth would of course include Dave, Ryan, Brian, Erik and Eric. I would not ask for better friends.
