Picture of the Day 10/8/14…It amazes me sometimes all that goes on behind a simple picture. If you didn’t pay attention and just glanced at it, you would think this is just a picture of two best friends. But if you knew the real story or happened to be there, you’d know there was so much more to it. For example, you’d know that there are dried tears, fear, sadness and anger in Roger’s eyes. You’d know that his parents drove across state to pick him up at football camp that day so he wouldn’t hear through the internet or text that his best friend had just been diagnosed with leukemia. You’d know that they drove straight to Orlando after telling him in the car. You’d know that he punched a wall when he got there and the reality hit. You’d know that he couldn’t go in to see her for an hour while he composed himself. And that it was only after he and I talked for a long time that he was able to go into her room because I told him that she needed him to be strong. This picture was taken hours later and I still see those things in his eyes. I saw it over and over again in all her friends eyes
