We all hope to have one. That one person you can tell everything to, cry to, talk to, be random with, and yell at but still remain close. That one person you wouldn't trade for anything, the one who helps you when your problems seem to big and you seem too small, the one who for some reason loves every flaw and imperfection, who accepts every dumb moment, who accepts you at your worst, and loves you at your best. Everyone wants one, everyone needs one. But why are they so hard to find?
People say "In order to get a friend, you have to be a friend." And that is very true, you can't just get a friend, you have to work, they have to work and you guys meet each other half way. But why is it so hard to just say "I want to be the friend to someone, and be the friend to them I wish to have."
But the thing is people think that you can only have 1 true friend...I wouldn't agree with that I have 3 true friends but each for a different reason...
Shelby: She was my first friend ever...she stood by my side if I needed her or not, we have two different personalities, but that doesn't affect us. If I had to say one thing about her...I can't just pick one, cause there are a hundred things that make her, her to me.
Miriam: Miriam is my second friend. Me and her have had ups and downs, but one thing always remained the same, we could play the dumbest games ever, but have the best time doing it. When she moved I thought you know 'Things are going to change' but they haven't changed we're still friends, and she can make me laugh a lot and in 3 words I love her.
Christi: Christi may be my third friend but she knows the most about me, and yet still loves me. We've had hard times where I would rather not have been friends, but then we would make up and I'd realize why she was my friend to begin with, she's the one who knows when I'm lying and won't accept it in any way shape or form and I love that about her.
Me and my friends, We're all different people but we all also came half way to the other and tried to be the friend we wanted to have ourselves. Friends are a piece of work but they're the ones who push us to our limits and love us even if we've had it with them.
Friends in 3 words: They're worth it.
Wow, Ang, this is really good! Very inspiring. And like you I agree, you don't have to have just one "best friend." I have several and all for various reasons. Always thank God for your friends cause remember, "they're the family you get to choose for yourself." ;) Love you!
