because you only live once.

maintaining friends is something which should almost be taught as a course at some point. friendship is a truly special thing and something which can be stronger than steel and at the same time as fragile as an egg shell. friendship takes work, is give and take, and if done well, will last a life time.

friends, really good friends, are one of life's luxuries. a true friend will over look your faults and weaknesses, will help pick you up, and will share in your victories. 1 might say that this almost sounds like the description of a family member. in fact, a really good and true friend is like a family member. however, there is one point in particular which separates family from friends.

except in the very rare situation, friends are not so likely to endure sharp comments, criticism, or any of the other sides of someone which a family will. family members don't always like each other, especially when things are said which cause disagreement. however underneath it all is the love of the family. this underlying love does not typically exist with the exception of the truly loyal and deep friendship. friendship is based on like and not live. it's unlike family, do not have the love to fall back on that family does and as in the case of cross words or strong emotions.

a friendship can end on a criticism, retort, or angry word. even seemingly harmless comments or actions can cause a friendship to go awry. it is with this understanding what makes friendships work and work well. knowing that friendship has its own set of rules, just as family does, will help prevent misunderstandings. it is often sad to watch friends go there separate ways especially when it is easy to see, as a third party, that a breach has occurred. a breach can take the form of money owed, an off handed comment, or other action which one person feels crosses the boundary. many people do not understand the fragile nature of friendships and that there is noting on which to fall back unless it has existed for quite some time and many situations have been face.

the worst thing in life is to lose a friend, a friend that means the world to you, a friend that you put all your trust and faith in, a friend that you believed in from the start, a friend that took the center of your heart, a friend that you'd die for, a friend that you wanted to cherish for a lifetime ... a friend, a good friend, a best friend.

my life is only my own, the choices i've made; the people i've chosen to love, the friends i've chosen to keep, the ones i've learnt, or are still trying, to let go of, every choice that has made an impact, a change in direction towards the life i am leading, they are all my own. people tend to think i am capable of taking care of myself. independent, and it's true; i am. it's about time i do just that. people who knows me knows i put friends as my top priority, and if one whom i loved doesn't reciprocate the same way, i'll repel like what a magnet does.

i do appreciate all you've been for me, i do, and i never said i was better .i don't understand why you seem to think i don't, i am trying my best here, there is only so far i can be pushed before i give up entirely.

gone is the old & the past, welcome the present & the new.
(:

i like talking to good old friends, they break the barrier between time and distance and all of a sudden i'm being transported into an entirely new world, one where the past and present intertwine. i want to talk hours and hours non-stop with people whom i remember so well, as if their faces are carved into the walls of my heart. so much has changed, yet a lot still hasn't. this week has been putting people from my past back into my life, and i am nothing short of grateful for that. we laughed at our crazy acts in the past, shook our heads on the stupid things we did; yet smiling (:
