Thoughts on Friends

Mar 28, 2005 13:44

All of the "drama" today has gotten my brain going.

Thinking about friends and all a lot...faults...myself...lots of stuff.

Most of my thoughts are about friends. It is hard to grow up...it REALLY is. The hardest part is realizing that your friends move on. It is sad...until you realize what a REAL friend is.
*You don't have to see them every day...or even talk to them every month.
*They are the ones that call when they freak out, or think you might be freaking out. Whether it has been days or months since you have talked.
*They are the ones that don't see you for about half a year and call you in a frenzy b/c they misinterpret your onling journal and think you got pregnant or married and forgot to tell them.
*They send a Christmas card...even when they only live half an hour away, b/c they know you like mail.
*They keep the gifts you make them, even if you never talk again.
*You take funny dress up pics and keep them on display-purple dresses and hot pink and black and red and black outfits, rebel flags, and prom queens.
*You can catch up in one night over chinese and pictures, you know what is going on by reminiscing.
*Even if you don't talk in between, you catch one anothe for atleast a hug when they are close by.
*You hold them in your hearts forever.

Regardless of what someone puts back into a friendship, if they did something good enough to earn a place in your heart, they are good enough for you to love forever. Hold on to the memories. And if they ever need you, months, years, with or without talking to one another...be there for them, right by there side, no questions asked, no harsh words for the lack of time spent. We all love one another...we are just busy. No one can easily keep all their priorities straight in early adulthood...especially with work, school, significant others and all the other time consumers we have in our lives these days. Time doesn't equal love...love equals love. Maybe everyone should take the time to drop a letter in the mail, or make a quick phone call to tell someone you love them...but if you don't have the time...love them still...and that is good enough.

Ok...work time...just had to get that out. There is still a lot on my mind...but tis okies.

And about my last update...Lori freaked...bad...but things are ok now. I have my guards up really high...and have...so it makes any little thing set me into a whirlwind of doubts. Doesn't mean I don't love him...but for those who know what is going on, you surely understand me being cautious.

Not sure how much sense that made...but I was thinking about a lot of ppl that mean a lot to me...mostly people I haven't seen in a while.
