So, it's been two whole weeks since i've written in this thing. A lot has happened, but I will spare you all the details...I am beginning to realize the days are going way to fast. I could have sworn it was just January. Maybe I'm just getting older. Possibility.
Just came back from lunch with a very dear friend of mine. We had Vietnamese food. Pretty tasty considering I usually don't like it that much. My friend did not want it, but still had it anyways. Ah, the sacrifices we make for friendship. I've been thinking about that subject lately. This whole year (all 2.5 months of it) have been highly awakening in terms of friendship. You think someone is a friend, and then they change on you. Or Maybe you never really knew them at all. Maybe their "friendship" really wasn't sincere in the first place. Might it have been all an "act", a stupid attempt to disguise something else they really wanted. Who knows. Life's funny that way.
If ya all have kept up with my posts, then you should know that I had a shocking revelation just over a month ago regarding an ex-friend that had decieved me, used me, lied to me, etc. I'm over it now, but for a short while it still made me question the sincerity of the close people around me. And for awhile it was pretty sad, but then I got over it. Because there are always gonna be friends that will come in and out of your life...all the time at any given moment. It may not be a bad thing...it may just happen because of circumstance, distance, or no plain reason at all. Things just happen. Shoot, time happens and priorities shift. Admit it, we are all busy.
But then there other people who you know in your heart will be your friends (dare I say it) forever. That's right. People who you love regardless of how much time is spent with them or how often you talk. You know that you care about them and they care about you. You just know it. And most of all you know that they have your best intentions at heart...they are happy when you are happy. You don't ever have to question that.
So...I guess when I see it in that way, it's not so complicated. I'm thankful for all the close friendships that I still have out there. I've been blessed to have some really loving and geniune people in my life.
Okay, now that I'm done getting all emotional on you... i gotta get back to work. Ugh.
