Friends

Friends are an amazing thing to have in our lives. We have best friends, we have friends, and we have boyfriends…or girlfriends if you’re a boy. Friends are there for us when we need them.  A lot of people are scared to go to their parents or share things with them. Others are very comfortable at it. Many people just go straight to their friends. That’s what I do.  I don’t just go to any friend though.  That’s what my best friend is for; someone who I trust with my life and someone who gives me good advice yet she tells me when I’m doing something wrong.

            I love friends! My brother moved out of the house almost a year ago and I miss him so much. It’s only my dad and I at the house and it gets very boring. So, I call up my friends and either have them come over, me go over there, or just go do something. We don’t even really have to be doing anything. We can just be talking about things and that’s good enough for me.

Some people say they are your friends, but then they betray you. Those are not true friends and I think we have to be careful who we choose as friends. If someone says they’re your friend and try to get you drunk or to go party, they aren’t your real friends. That just makes me mad. Or if they say they’re your friend then you come to find out they were talking bad about you behind your back. Not nice.  

I’m not much of a talker around people who aren’t really my friends, but once you get to know me and become a friend, or close friend, I talk a lot! But talking is good when you need to get a lot off your chest. That has been me the last couple weeks. The thing is, my best friend just gets mad at me and tells me I’m stupid for the things I’ve been doing; maybe she’s right, but I still always need someone to listen to me and to comfort me.  I haven’t really had anyone to really talk to about this or have a shoulder to cry on; which makes it really hard. All my hurtful thoughts and thoughts about how           has hurt me just builds up inside; and when people make me mad, I just get really angry. I’m sure I’m just being a cry baby. But hey, I know I’ll get through it and there’s always Jesus who fixes me right up. And he is my ultimate best friend!
