crew ski trip last year....
i hear the quiet hush hush of everyones voices, hands motioning towards the door. stepping outside, i can feel the rush of the cool december air on my skin. the night is as real as ever. soon running around aimlessly in the open fields, free as can be, was the only concern in my life.my vision became blurred with the incessant smiles and laughter of the boys and girls. the countless hugs and kisses from the staggering girls and the faint smell of the vodka in everyone's breath slowly fading away...i can remember the stars never looked so bright. i see the light reflecting off everyone's faces. suddenly i stop to catch my breath, and this unexplanable feeling overcomes me. i inhale deeply and with that one breath, the childish rapture continues until one by one, we fall down as the laughter and fatigue takes over our bodies. while lying in the arms of my friends,i suddenly felt the wetness on my cheek stream down. and it was at this very moment, that i knew that these people were not only ordinary people, but they were my best friends.
that was one of the most amazing moments in my life. the connection i felt that night was never so powerful. "ride the snake" became a meaningful phrase that night that only the "crew" could explain it.
in that one single moment, i can explain everything i feel about my friends. i care too much to watch it all crumble and fall apart. i cant let it happen. these people taught me how to love, and be loved in return. the kind of love that never ends. they taught me to be myself, and that i am a good person. they are the only people i can be myself around and not care.
well..i know that no matter what paths my friends take, we will always have that special connection with each other. ive never had friends like them before, and nobody will replace them. i just hope everyone realizes what we were.
and this is my last entry about friends i promise
