Madison’s first assignment as an Angel is a success. She helps April deal with her concerns about starting a new school and not being able to see her friends from last year.
Madison gives April advice on how to handle change and keep in touch with her ‘old’ friends. The Self-Esteem Angel shares insights on how to make things work when her ‘old’ and ‘new’ friends don’t get along. They discuss how friendships naturally grow and change as we go through life.

Read some excerpts:
“I told her sometimes we need to create space in our lives for more good people, and good things, to come into it.”
“It’s important to decide which friends you do want to keep a relationship with. This is a very difficult choice for people. With some friends it can become a very hurtful experience.”
“Friendship sounds like it’s hard.”
“Yes, it can be. But, many times if we relax and accept that our friendships grow and change just like we do, it makes it easier to handle.”
“Some friends will move away and choose not to work at staying friends. Life will take some of her friends in a different direction and they won’t have anything in common anymore and that’s okay.”
“If a friendship is lost, it is important to remind ourselves that it doesn’t mean we aren’t good enough to have friends or that we’ll never have friends or even that we did something wrong. It is simply how life works. People move in and out of our lives in a very natural way.”
