     I am just going to write about somethings that have been floating through my head tonight. The one thing that I have swimming around in there is what is truly means to be a friend. Fist off I would say that a friends should be closer than anyone too you. You should be able to tell them things and vice versa without worrying over harsh judgement. They should accept you for who you. I also think to a certain extent you should watch carefully as to whom you allow into your life.  Does this person hold up to my standards of what is acceptable around me or does this person do things that I would prefer not to have in my life in other words. I think that the true meaning of a friendship and I mean  I am there for you thick and thin type is Loyalty and trust which need to really take a part in every relationship we have in life. You have to always give the same as you take and be there thru the hard times as well as the good. Sometimes life can get busy and friends that we were once so close  can start to drift but I think that it is important to keep the bond strong or else you will find your life with a hole in it when the person no longer has faith in the fact that you will be there if you ever need them. If you know that there is a friend you have that is going through something let them know that you are still there, make a call that may let them know " hey, you are not alone in this". I am a lucky person in this I have very few friends who I am close to but I know they will always be there to laugh and to cry with me. Maybe there is someone out there that is in your life and alone, and maybe you should reach out to them because you never know they may become a best friend to you that you may not have had if you don't just step out and say hey how are you. I always try to remember sometimes a kind word can change a person's entire day for the better.Sometimes that rude cashier just may be having a really bad day, do you really want to add to it. Anyways my thoughts are wondering, back to the topic of friendship. I manly have three very close friends all three bringing there own unique twist to my life.   I try to be the best friends that I can be to them, because having a friend that you are close with is the same as a marriage really you have committed to being there for this person. Everyone needs someone out there in the world who they can confide in a talk with, because there is nothing worse than feeling alone. being alone is one thing but when you feel it, at least in my case it can feel like the whole world is coming in on you. Sometimes the best thing that you can do for someone is just listen, let them know you are there, don't push, and don't judge anything that they tell you. Even if what they have to say you may not agree, or you may think that they are doing wrong it is ok to just let things go and do what a true friend should settle in with a cup of coffee and listen . Anyways I am sorry to ramble just things i have been thinking about.

       To my friends Amber and Tonya who have always been there, thank you so much neither one of you could ever realize the impact you have had on my life, and that you have truly made me the person i am today. Without you I would have made this journey through life alone. I met you both at a point in life when i was not expecting anyone to come into it and be there for me. You have both taught me what it is to be a friend and for that I am forever in debt to you. May God always bless you in everything you do.
