Sometimes in life, you find yourself choosing between love and friendship. Alot of times, when this happens, one will seem to choose for love and put friendship behind. Then gradually, you will see that through time, your friends will slowly drift away from you. And at the end, when love ends, you will see that you are left standing alone in seek of that one friend who didnt drift apart from you. Because of the environment that we live in now, we always tend to take everything for granted. Our parents, our other half, our siblings, our jobs, our time, our life, our health......and our friends.
Some people say that "Friendship last a lifetime"....but does it really? Fate brought the strangest, or the coolest, or the funniest, or the best looking, or the complete opposite people together. And through time, these two complete strangers have slowly taken a part of each other's heart and become a part of each other's lives. Time can be very fragile, yet very strong. Everyone has a different outlook on this....some people sit in the office all day staring at the clock and wondering when its time to go home. While some other people are just praying to GOD to give them that one extra minute.
If you want to know how much "A year" is worth, you can ask a student who failed and has to retake their course all over again.
If you want to know how much "A month" is worth, you can ask a mother who gave birth to a premature baby.
If you want to know how much "A week" is worth, you can ask the editor for Times Magazine.
If you want to know how much "An hour" is worth, you can ask a boyfriend who is sitting in the living room waiting for his girlfriend to get ready.
If you want to know how much "A minute" is worth, you can ask someone who just missed his flight.
If you want to know how much "A second" is worth, you can ask someone who survived from the dead.
If you want to know how much "A millisecond" is worth, you can ask the second runner up at the olympics.
I read an article today and it says:
"When we are busy, we want to rest.
When we are on vacation, we think about the future.
When we are poor, we wonder what its like to be rich.
When our life is settled down, we wonder how long it will last.
When we make a decision, we wonder if its the right one.
When we make the right decision, we regret not making that decision any sooner."
We tend to always want what we dont have, and the things that we have, we dont cherish it and take it for granted.
A friend, is someone who understands you when no one else does. A friend, is the first person who comes to mind when you have something you want to find someone to share it with. A friend, is someone who will let you take out your anger on when you are mad. A friend, is someone who rather get caught letting you cheat off their homework. A friend, is someone who is sitting next to you and lending their shoulder for you to cry on. A friend, is someone who is willing to go out of their way to help you out whenever you need a helping hand.
As i am sitting here writing this blog, it made me think about my friends. I am very lucky to have my friends, the people who came into my life and never left me behind. I'm thankful to know that one day when love ends (hopefully it wont), I wont be alone, because my friends will be there standing next to me....all because I see the importance of friendship and that I cherish each and everyone one of them.......and so should you~~~ ^__^
"Dont walk in front of me, I may not follow.
Dont walk behind me, I may not lead.
Walk beside me and be my friend."
