The Price of a Friendship
I don’t know what will be the best title to put.. If I can remember correctly, a girl friend of mine said something sounded like ‘ya.. let the money buy our friendship‘. So, it’s sounded more like ‘The Price of a Friendship’. I reckon it is.. So, here is what I would like to say about what is friend and friendship means to me..
What it means to have friends. Means a lot actually, simple reasons could be formed groups to go out with and have fun, or it could be simple people you just meet and never want to forget their names one-timers as I’d call them. It could also mean people you message through e-mail, SMS or IM.
Complex reasons would be like if you make friends are you willing keep them through thick and thin obstacles? Sacrificing yourself to save them? Or if fights go on are you willing to put aside your differences and start over? Forgive them for minor wrongdoings? Ask them as well if Cliques really mattered? These things and questions are what’s included in a build yourself friendship kit. I have still much to learn while i went through it all it was not easy and it still isn’t which is why i chose to have a few close friends because when I had a lot I never kept them, left them because we never talked or hung out so I decided to prevent this a few close ones i stuck with, some good, some bad some perfect.
Throughout our lives we encounter many people. We make friends, disconnect from old friends and maybe even later re-connect with those we have lost. Time passes, friends move, we move, they change and we change. When we are young we look for a best friend, someone we can trust with all of our secrets and to play on the playground with. As we get older we will look for someone who we can still trust and share our most memorable experiences with. We will look for someone to be our partner in crime and who will be the shoulder to lean on through all the bad times.
When we’re younger our friendships mean the world to us and we believe that person will be with us forever. Friendships are just like relationships, they take work. Sometimes people evolve into different people and that friendship no longer works. We grow apart and realize it is no longer working. So what happens then? Do we simply do our separate ways and never speak to each other every again or choose to take a different road and maybe one day you can start all over.
It happened to me previously with my close boy friend(very close as in like brother and sister), and it happened to me again not a while ago with my girl friends, and so, I decided to write this to say a million ‘thank you’ for all your kindness, concerns and help. Guys, you know who you are. I am touched, and I just can’t find the best words to express how grateful I am to have you as my good and best friends. You are all at my heart.
I believe we make and lose friends for a reason. We have to lose friends in order to appreciate the ones who will stick by us. There will be different friends for the many stages of life we will go through. There will be friends whom we barely know but feel so connected to, ones who will be our family and ones who really will be friends forever. I NEVER ever can buy a friendship.. Friendship is PRICELESS..
