Why I love my friends


Today, I posted a Facebook status and it said "Friendship is something I value... but sometime you have to let it go, in order to make room for a new one."  Have you heard of this saying and it goes something like this:  " Friends are like a diamonds, precious and rare, and difficult to come by."  I'm not sure what that supposed to mean, but from that saying, it's basically saying that we have to do whatever it takes to keep our friendship at all cost. Do I agree with it?   Well,  I love all of my friends.  I was there for them when they needed me. I gave them money, food, clothes, etc.  I love them with all my heart.  But some of them have to go.  Friendship is about growing, changing, and figuring out what we want.  One thing I've learned about my friends this summer is that we all change in different ways, at different time and sometime friendships can survive that, sometime it can't.  I also learned that sometime no matter how bad we want our friendship to work, sometime we have to let them go.  It's never really easy to let go of a relationship you had with that person, because of history you and that person had together.  Let me ask you a question:  Do you want to have a friendship with someone who holds you back, never bring joy into your life, and always thinking about their own well-being, and not your? Do you want a friendship with someone who doesn't care enough to be part of your life small or big? Do you want to risk your happiness for that? Do you want a friendship where you are constantly trying, and that person isn't?  

So many of my friends failed this summer, and so they have to go. 

Like I said before.. It's never easy letting it go.. whether it's friendship, family, or someone you love.  Nothing is easy.
