Friends

By definition, a friend is a person who gives assistance; a patron; a supporter. But friends are much more then that. True friends are always there to make you smile and laugh. They are there through the good times and the bad and they never leave your side. This past week has made me realize that friends are some of the most important people in my life and the lives of everyone else. You never realize how important people are to you until they are gone. The difference between life and school is that life gives the test first and then teaches the lesson. But no matter what, when you need a helping hand or a sholder to cry on, your friends will always be there for you to give you comfort- to cheer you up or to just be there with you. So dont take your friends for granted, spend as much time with them as you can because you can always count on them to make you happy.

Without the support of all my friends, i wouldn't have have lasted through this week. People who i haven't talked to at all this year were all there to help me and i was there for them. Chris has brought everyone together and made us realize that we have to stick together. It is sad that it takes something so tragic to bring everyone together- old friends and new; and it is sad that Chris doesnt even get to enjoy it; but he brought to our attention that at one point in the past everyone split up. Old friends stopped talking to eachother and in some cases started gossiping about eachother to new friends; and this shouldn't be. New friends are good but we cant forget about old friendships. This past week, everyone who had split up came together and we all supported each other through this tragic time. So again I am saying that without all my friends this past week would have been impossible to get through; and again i am stressing to not take friends for granted; and if you find a friendship slipping away, fight like hell to save it because losing a friend is probably one of the worst things to go through in a persons life.

The point of this blog is to find happiness, and i am saying now that the first place to look is to your friends, because no matter what they will always be there for you.
