Hello My Friends,
Hope all is well and you are enjoying the journey! Today I must talk about friends, after all I am getting older and I have learned alot about this subject. I will though be careful for I am not a doctor and I don’t know everything, only what I have seen! Now that this is clear, we can move on.
Friends is a tricky subject, the most of trickiest subjects. Are they friends, acquaintances, novelties, wanna be with you, showcases, or true till the end friends? That is the question you must ask yourself for the rest of your lives! This is one of life’s realities you cannot ignore, push aside, or not try to figure out. Unless you are extremely ignorant! Don’t be!
I have a great number of real friends, let me say that again. I am lucky to have some good friends. I will not mention them for they already know who they are. I do have two new friends who have adopted me and we’ll see how that works out. For I put them through something I didn’t think I had to go through, yet I did, because that’s what happened and your friends help you when you need it. If they are true friends.
For the youth of America, look at your friends, are they true? There is no way you will know for years to come. But if they help you through today they are on their way to being a true friend. A true friend is something earned nothing else, earned! My car broke down will you pick me up, I’m really ill, I had a accident will you pick me up, I was arrested please come get me, one of my parents beat me come get me, or whatever disaster you are going through will they help? If they do it, they are on their way to being your friend. The journey takes many roads, how many will your friend travel with you. They might have roads they have to take! Do they stay in touch, do they call, do they ask how are you? If they do, they are on their way to being your friend. The roads of life take you many miles, your friends will travel those roads with you, even if they are not there. True friends will always stay in touch.
As we all grow, we realize our business acquaintances are not all friends, some steal our ideas, tell us we don’t fit in, try to destroy us, because they realize we have life experience, or presence, or personality, that they will never have no matter how hard they try. Friends, as you get older changes! Look for true heart, people you see who do care, trust your instinct, it’s usually right. Believe in yourselves, I know you have heard this before, yet it is true, believe in yourself! As time passes you will know who your friends are. Remember, to watch out for you, no one else will except a true friend!
