What's Important To Me
A conversation with my closest of friends made me realise something important today.
I thought that what was most important to me was being "a good friend to my friends".
To be the best possible friend I could be to the people I care for.
But. I realised today that this isn't entirely true.
This life goal is secondary to me living life by my principles.
More than the familial and platonic relationships I've built, the values and beliefs that I have distilled after my 27 years of life are what anchor my sense of identity.
And I would rather be all, all alone, than to waver.
