I wrote, "Last night, I was with a friend. We were supposed to be working on a school project, but we spent most of the time talking about his concern for a good friend of his and how he could best help her, what he could say to her. In that time, I saw, as Sawako (Kimi ni Todoke) would say, a new face of his. I saw my friend's face toward his good friend. It was full of care and driven to be the best friend he could be for her. It was amazing in a quiet, exciting kind of way. I felt honored to be trusted as his friend to see that face.
'How honored and loved I am,' I thought, reflecting on my experience, 'to be someone to whom Jesus will show his face towards his precious friends.'"
