Some friends will be by your side
forever while others will come and go like the weather. True friends are there for you no matter the
weather or how bad a storm gets. The people
who are true to you embrace the qualities that make you different, that make
you stand out in a positive way. Because
you are not the same as everyone else, something about you just might stand out
like a sore thumb! But like everything,
you learn how to work around things to get your way. You might have to take a longer road than
everyone else and make sacrifices to get there, but in the end it does not
matter as long as you get there with the people who truly have your support
every step of the way. You do not have
to see your friends every day. Some you
might talk to on the phone or email more than those who you run into every
day. The one who you would think that
you might run into every day because they live right around the corner, you
might barely get to see. Life is funny
that way but the reality is that life can keep you busy with everything that
you are responsible to do as an adult.
As a kid we can do anything and
have no responsibility. The only
responsibilities we have are to have fun, stay out of trouble and learn as we
grow. As we grow up, we see the changes
and start to really see how we have to count on ourselves and no one else. It is always important to have friends there
for you as long as they are supportive of you.
Most of the time your job does not define your friendships, it is
usually your common interests or experiences that define your friendships. It is also ok to have different friends who
may not have the same interests as you. You all might have a ton in common but not
always see things from the same point of view.
It is very important to keep an
open mind about topics, especially when you have a wide variety of friends. The important thing is to think and look at
all the things that made you friends to begin with. And the reason for that is because they will
always have your back like family does, and will never turn away from you at
the the time when you need them by your side the most.
