You've Got a Friend

What is true friendship? How would you define a true friend? I thought I had this whole thing we call true friendship figured out. Turns out I didn't quite have it right. I’m learning that things change, people change, friendships change and it doesn't mean you forget the past or try to cover it up. It simply means you move on and treasure the memories. Letting go doesn't mean giving up, it means accepting and treasuring the past and being open to new future experiences.

Why do friend’s drift apart? People have so many answers, I’ll give you my answer: Time.

It’s life’s experiences, boyfriends, girlfriends, children, different interests, occupations, or, not having anything in common anymore.

How sad is that? For starters, when you leave school you and your friends may go different ways. You meet new people, or have a new interest. Again, it’s sad sometimes because you miss the good times you had with your old friends, but then you've just got to accept yourself, and move forward. Maybe you will be able to connect with an old friend later in life.

I am looking forward singing my heart out Friday night at Asia Roma, with my friends; some new and some old. All are very dear to my heart.

Karaoke, booze + positive energy are the perfect ingredients for a fabulous time!

I decided to feature pictures that tribute to famous friendships that stand the sands of time:
