Friendship
Well, reading my friends post made me realize something that is really important in our lives.
In my 20 years, I have made friends, best friends, cried over friends, lost friends, became upset about it, laughed, and I have come to this point where I am pretty content with loving the people I have around me.
I look at some who were my friends, and wonder how they can "admit" to having so many friends. By so many, I mean 200, 300 friends. Really? You REALLY have this many friends...I'd like to ask if you can name all of them, where you guys have met and how you guys became friends. I bet you you can't do it. Because you simply don't care about the fact that I was once your friend, and now I'm just a dust bunny in your room. It's so funny to find out that these people use the numbers of friends as a tool to make more friends. That's how I was fooled. Greed. Popularity. We all want that don't we, consciously or not. Big mistake that I've made, but something that made me realize that it's not something we truly need. Those who will become our good friends will be the one who will be there regardless of the amount of shit we have done / will do to eachother. There are people in this world who make you angry, make you sad, make you feel hurt...These people potentially give you life because they give you the emotion you need...But in the end, TRUE friends give you pure happiness. Because after going through a cycle of bad emotions we come up with solutions to fix bad emotinos and make them into good ones. Like my best friends I have right now. The feeling of being with somebody and smiling together is the BEST FUCKING FEELING EVER.
Lesson learned: don't open up so easily to people.
And to reply to my friends post, don't expect to get friends so easily. It doesn't take a day, a week, a year...It takes YEARS to gain trust. The people who I love in my life now, I've known them for a long time. I have met potential friends last year hoping that we can grow together, but obvisouly it didn't work out because I got backstabbed just like you. Don't worry, there are people who are out there who are dying to see you. I know this sounds cheesy from a 20 year old, but this subject is something that is important to me, and something that I'm passionate about. And I'm assuming it is the same to you.
Because your post summarizes everything in a photo, this is mine:
You really KNOW who you are, my friends. I hope we can be like this: Old, saggy, but sure as hell happy.
And Ritchie, I can't WAIT to meet you. :)
