How does a person become disconnected from another I wonder. Through your life you have these people in it that are your "friends". Are they actually? Sometimes you have to sit back and seriously wonder, are they there for my benefit, their own benefit, or maybe a bit of both.
Do you ever wonder what a true friendship actually is or should be?
Up until this point in my life I always thought I had a few friends at each and every time in my life, some that I thought were awesome, some not so much. I always referred to one person as a best friend until I became older and it didn't really matter anymore. Well maybe "best" meant something different as I got older and understood what it should really mean. Up until this point in my life I always thought of being a best friend, a good friend or a friend in general meant something else.
"Friends come and go but family is for life." - That's the quote right? When I was little, I never really believed this quote. I never thought this really meant anything. And holy man was I wrong. I'm not saying that I lost a really good friend or anything and that I am sad, because I am not. I just wonder why on earth friends just slowly disappear.
I have had friends that have moved away and we lost touch because we weren't old enough to know the difference. I have had friends who moved away and we stayed in contact but as we grew up we unfortunately grew apart. We had different things going on in our lives and we were at different stages. I have had friends that come and go and come again. I have had friends that I wanted to stay but it wasn't meant to be. I have had friends who I don't have time for. I am rambling on......
What is a true friend... There are some people that I truly miss. There are some I don't care that even left. A couple that I don't even understand why we don't talk anymore, it makes me wonder if I did something wrong?! Who knows. But the one true Best friend I have who taught me what a best friend should be....Grant.
Grant taught me that you should be able to tell someone anything in the whole world and never get judged. Who will love you no matter what you do or say. Someone you can be completely silly around and they think you are funny or ridiculous. A friend is supposed to support you in everything you do in life even when you are wrong. Love you for who you are, even when you change. Grant taught me to be the best that I can be, even if sometimes its terrible. He taught me to love unconditionally and passionately. Grant taught me what a best friend should be. (Hehe, I just rhymed)
