Have you ever, one day, just sit and think about
your friends?
Friends who you think are the closest and the ones
who understand you most.
Friends who would go for miles for you.
Friends you would love to still be friends with but
no longer can.
Friends who turned out to be enemies.
Friends who were forgotten but came back and became
better friends.
Friends that you wish you do not have.
Friends that you wish understand just as much as
you understand them.
Friends that hurts you most, friends that heal.
Friends that makes up for all the friends you wish
you have, and
Friends that make you feel okay having just a handful of friends.
Doesn’t it feels funny when unexpectedly, someone
whom you does not expect seem to think of you as a friend? And someone whom you
expect to be a friend turns out to be unexpectedly unfriendly?
Some of the funny things in life that you can’t
explain ^_~
To everyone I have called friends, you are still my
friends. I don’t have a lot of friends, but you made me see that I don’t need
as many. Sometimes finding out whom you
can befriend and who wants to befriend you is a wonderful surprise.
“To the world, you may only be someone, but to
someone, you may mean the world.”
So dear friends, if you’ve always felt that there’s
a person out there who you want to be friend with, just say hi and give it a
try. You’ll never know how far those selfless first-step may take you ^_^
Friendships Remain and Never Can End ~ except for the
few crooked ones that should!
