Friends.

stronghold. ♥*

Some people are unpredictable.

and some aren't.


but sometimes you want to believe that the person is something they're not.

Right when you're thinking everything's okay, and you're best friends,

Something happens and well you guys aren't so tight anymore.

My mom always told me that if you get too close to someone,

eventually, you'll grow apart. You won't last long.

and sadly I think it's true.

I've learned from past experiences, if you're too close to someone for too long,

and you establish TOO MUCH trust, (yes, there is such thing, I believe.)

It just doesn't turn out well.

Sometimes I tell myself that there's exceptions for that,
that some friends will really stick with you all your life.
but no matter how TIGHT and TOGETHER we feel right now,
is that really going to apply in the future?
You might say right now that we're going to be friends forever and keep in touch no matter what direction we go in,
but search yourself for a minute. will you REALLY do that?
Or are you just telling yourself that, for comfort?

Some people I've only known for a few years.
and yet they're my best friends. I normally don't admit that I have best friends. I don't like segregating/dividing up my friends.
Well, I kind of do. but I don't like saying it.

ha, well. and some people that I've only known for like a year or half a year,
it seems like we're so close, and it could go nowhere but uphill.

What stinks is, I don't know that. no one knows that. no matter what group you're in or how much time you spend together, you don't know the future.
you don't know what's going to happen. if you grow apart, or stay together.
sure, you tell yourself all that to make yourself feel better,
as a sense of security and belonging
but I think inside we all know that some things can't last forever

I'm not saying that all of our friends are going to be gone in our futures

but I'm saying that it is unpredictable. You don't know what's going to happen.




I think all you can do right now is hang on to the friends you've got and cherish your time together. And what happens, happens for a reason. No matter how much we don't want it to.

But I love my friends. They're there for me in EVERYTHING I do, and I'm so extremely blessed to have them.

so YOU. if you're reading this, you're my friend. because you care.


:) Thanks for being my friend. through everything.


Ick, I feel so mushy-gushy. but it's a good mushy-gushy. like a warm and fuzzy mushy gushy.

^______________^;


So basically, I'm going to sum things up. Cause I'm even confusing myself right now.


I don't know what's going to happen in the future, but I do know what's going to happen today. and Today, and as for the PRESENT, I'm going to keep my friends with me, close. If we grow apart in the future, you still definitely made an impact on my life and I'm blessed to even have met you. But let's not talk about that now. I don't even like thinking about the future. I'm blessed to have you in my life NOW, and I cherish and love you as a friend. Thanks for being there, and you guys are all in my heart, always. All of my friends, are like my family.




Thank you for everything. Thank you for caring.







ALRIGHTS no more mushy-gushy ness ^_____^;



With love, Maria
