Hello, me again, reporting for duty. I've once again been sitting with a topic on my heart that I just could not wait to blog about. It is something that each and every one of us as young females deal with on what seems to be a daily basis... Friendship(s). Well, if you're like me, I go through friends like underwear. Not that I treat them bad or anything but because I am very picky when it comes to friends. Like some people, I don't let people in very easily, for the simple fact that you cannot trust just anyone.
In life, whether young or whether old, we will always come into contact with people; Some will become a friend for a season while others will simply become a lifelong bud. A friend is someone who complements your character and who you are, they are there to celebrate your victories and defeats (yes, we celebrate defeats because it means something better is in store!). It is so important to surround ourselves with the right kind of people because ultimately, we are only as good as the people we surround ourselves with. We need people who are going to uplift us, people who are inspiring and on the same mission as us. If not, it's pretty much pointless surrounding ourselves with them. We're at an age where high school friends are starting to fall by the waist-side. Why? Simply because we're maturing, and with maturity comes change. It means deciding who is real and who was only there for the good times. Unfortunately, this is life and the good times aren't always going to roll, so you better roll those fake friends outta here. However, I'm not saying that all high school friends fall away but most of them do. This is our life and we need to decide who is worth being in it and who is worth the effort of keeping.
But I don't want to end this post on a negative note because meeting new people and making new friends is an exciting process. All you need to do is go to the right places and keep in mind who you are, what you stand for and never compromise that to please anybody. Toodles:)
