the past three years, I've moved every couple of months into different place, with different people, a even a different state. friends have came and left. boys will be boys. the only thing consistent has been my job. I've have grown so much. I've learned who I am, what I am, and learned the true meaning of being on my own; being independent and relying on myself. I've learned a great deal about responsibility. heartbreak. pain. disappointment. and so much more. I'm finally starting to realize who my true friends are; they are definitely few, and far between; but they're the ones who matter the most to me. there's this saying, it's better to have one bestfriend than 10 aquatences. it makes sense when you really think about it. there has been one single person who has been there for me thru everything. every mistake. every heartache. every accomplishment. EVERYTHING. and I would give her the world if I could. she has taught me so much about life, and friends, and everything in general. I do believe people are put in your life for a reason; to help you grow; to help you learn; and to kick you in the ass when you make the dumbest decisions over and over again. she is my rock and I couldn't ask for a better person to call my bestfriend.
along with the growing process, I have learned to not let people walk all over me. to say good riddance to the people who don't deserve to me. and even though it has its downfalls, to not let people in so quick. I'm slowly learning who my true friends are and the people who only bring me down. the people who are so self absorbed in their own lives, to help me out when I'm in need. the past few weeks, I've came to the realization that the saying "treat others and you wish to be treated" doesn't really apply in the real world. or at least, not in my world. I'd rather have people in my life who want to be there for me, who want to actually hang out with me, who don't ditch me for others. I want people in my life who are real, not fake. which is why I'm not taking any more shit from anyone. I live my life for me, and only me; so to let ungrateful people in my life who don't realize what kind of a person I am, is the most "ridiculous" decision I could ever make.
I really don't know where I was going with this, but I needed to get it out. I am me, and nothing else; so take it or leave it. love me or hate me. but keep this in mind: you can't break the girl who thinks nothing of you :)
