Friends

Hello to the ones that take the time to read my blogs.

Now let's begin, I want to talk about friends NO let me rephrase that (real friends). I am sick and tired of fucking fake people. For the few that have met me, you will figure out really quick that I am not like everybody else, instead, you will see ME! For the ones that have not met me, I am very very quiet, I keep to myself, I don't bother people I keep my mouth shut, in other words, I don't like drama. But that is about to change, some of the people who know me have noticed a change, some for the good and some not. I am cleaning the house sort of speak. But still, that does not make me less than you. I have feelings just like the next guy.

Before I go on I want to share a quote with you, take time to think about it: (A man should choose a better friend than himself. There are plenty of acquaintances in the world, but very few real friends.) What I want someone to explain to me is why are people these days so judgemental. Are you/they so unhappy with your life or friends that you/they got to bring down others?? how sad. So what if I don't wear really nice clothes or I don't have a souped-up car. Or act like everyone else around me just to get their approval.. News Flash I don't need your fucking approval. I will dress and drive and act the way my mother and father raised me to act.

These days it's all about impressing your peers. What the hell for? what are you getting out of it???? Friends???? don't thinks so. A (real friend) is not going to care what you wear what you drive or even who you are. I have come into contact with many people in my life that clam to be my friends, but soon they stop calling or answering their phones or their text. It's always ( I'm Busy! or I got so much going on right now.) Bullshit! what they don't seem to notice is I am very observant. Being a person that doesn't talk much I have more time to see whats going on around me. But anyways these people still call their other friends they GO see their other friends. When a friend says they will call you back and then never call back that pisses me off! I understand people do sometimes forget things, But I have friends who say it and never call back (never)! That does nothing but show me where a rank as a friend to them.

People I am here to tell you that I am not stupid, I may not have book smarts, but God damn it, I have common sense. I just want people to stop once in a while and notice the quiet people, the ones that are shy and sit in the back row. We would love someone to come and sit with us and YOU not feel ashamed to be seen sitting with us.

Think about this: (When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.) This is what I ask all of you that are still reading this. That is to think about all your friends and ask yourself would you die for them? If you answer no about any of your friends do me and them a favor and tell them that you would not die for them and you be on your merry way. In other words STOP WASTING THEIR FUCKING TIME. real friends stick together.

I hope I opened some of your hearts and got you thinking. Because you never know when you will lose them. People die, that's just life. And when people in are lives die, I always hear the same words ( I wish I told them how much I loved them ) so stop being so BUSY, slow down or just STOP and tell everybody that means anything to you that you love them! friends and family, it goes both ways.
