friendship

C.S Lewis got it right: friendship is born when one person says to another: "What! You too? I thought I was the only one!"

Remembering David
"You're late." The speaker didn't trouble to remove the dog end from his lips. "Because you have so many other places to be." Replied the newcomer.

Still
This is a story about the time my best friend, my partner in crime, had sex in the same bed I was trying to sleep in. No, that's not an error, and yes this is very true.

People We Can’t Forget
We meet thousands of people in our lives. We sometimes hate them or sometimes feel like we’re walking on clouds while talking to them. In every way, people are one of the most important things in a human’s life. However, some of these people we’re referring to might be more important for us than the others. They either might be our best friends or members of our families. Whoever they are, there are probably specific reasons that give them that great privilege.

Friends
During the times of starting and owning new ventures and journeys in life, it’s very hard to discern who’s really in your corner. Some are out just to use you, others are to help you, but how do we really decide on who is for us and who is not? I come from a big city that full of ambitious people willing to make their dreams happen even if they have little to nothing. The discernment of finding a friend process is a journey in itself because not only do YOU have to be put together as far as your life, but you have to make sure that the other person can handle themselves and the friendship as well.

Wrong Place, Wrong Time
It can look very bad when you get caught with half of the store in your backpack. I was hanging out with my friends after school and we get thirsty. We went to the store and attempted to shoplift. We got caught by a store worker. My day ended with me running home terrified that the police might be looking for me. Peer pressure is a good way to get yourself in trouble.

When We Were Kids
You used to be my righthand girl. It was always the two of us, making mischief, art, and laughter. We spent endless days running wild in the fields by our house, and the nights curled up in bed making up stories until one of us fell asleep.

Where's Your Place?
Where's your place in your relationships? Where do you stand? I'm not referring to intimate relationships, but I am referring to friendships. Granted, some people don't care to make new friends. They keep their childhood circle relevant and everyone is just a mere acquaintance, which is okay. Then you have people who are open to meeting new people and letting that relationship grow into whatever it may be.

Best
There are so many people that come into your life, and barely leave any marks. But you on the other hand, you have left footprints. You, my greatest friend, have been stomping all over my heart for the last three years that I've known you. The three years that have felt like a lifetime. I don't know how it happened, but you and I just clicked and before you knew it we were telling each other all about our lives. You were never just a friend, you were more like a sister, parent, mentor, literally my best friend soulmate. There have been so many people in and out of my life, but with you it has always been different. When everybody else left the picture, you were the only one still standing there cheering me on and giving me more hope. That was when I knew you were a real friend, my best. You're like the glue that holds us together when we feel like everything is falling apart. Thank you for being my best. I'm not sure which one of us started that phrase, "best." But it's short and simple to describe this unique little friendship of ours. All of our pinky promises we've made to each other over the years, and yes I still promise that if you're not married by the age of 40, we'll move in together with my dog :) Because what better way to be alone, than to be alone with your best friend?

To My Friends
I love you. You are truly one of the best things to have ever happened to me. I’m not easy to get along with, I know that. Being around someone who doesn’t know how to be happy by herself is a lot, but I am so grateful you deemed me worthy of that work. You’ve shown me more than I would’ve ever learned myself. Thank you for treating me like a person, and not a burden. Thank you for teaching me that I am worthy of being loved. Thank you for your unwavering support, it means more than I will ever be able to articulate.

Speak Out
Navigating through high school can be a journey of itself, I’ll tell you that. One of my biggest weaknesses was often communication. Granted, I asserted myself to others. There would be times I would avoid direct confrontation. Maybe I was trying not to be dramatic or have one of those nasty spats with people like I’m a chill person. Sometimes I am, but even I have a temper, though probably not as much compared to some individuals in high school who can explode like crazy.
