Friendship Relations
Complexity is the name of the game when it comes to
friendship relations, you ‘ll find your patience , your loyalty and
tolerance being tested time and time
again, up until you bear your soul open to
reality , shake away the shallowness , expectancy to truly enjoy the bliss that comes with
creating a friendship and maintaining one . We all were raise differently ,
come from families that vary i.e from money ,values, education, to being raised by single parents and yet fight to be appreciated , not
to be stigmatised by our back rounds , somehow all those factors come into play
when we start building friendships ,be it as young adults or just plain adults
. It’s called friendship relations, takes time to make it solid yet can be
destroyed within seconds, as bad decisions play a deceiving game with good
decisions, selfishness overrides consideration and thoughtfulness, these are
friendship relations .
They say blood is thicker than water, at this point in my life
I wouldn’t agree with that statement even if someone pointed a gun in my head, as
I have been surrounded by beautiful
spirits in my lifetime ,some still with me and some no longer present ,
but their role will always influence me
positively as that is how I choose to
remember them . These are friendship relations, they bring about our
insecurities , progress , change , disappointments all bottled up with a bit of
jealousy in it, that sometimes disguises itself and comes out in the words we
utter in anger . Loving someone is a risk that you have to take without fear but believe with trust that what you
offer to your friend is enough to make the friendship grow and be strong , with
all the challenges that the spirit guides might throw at you , these are friend ship relations.
It’s the most priceless motion to feel when you find
yourself being close to a person that you think about as soon as you see something crazy
or going through a life changing experience , that one person who
appreciates your awkwardness ,weirdness and you even call each other crazy names
without anybody taking offence, that one person who is human enough to make
mistakes and apologise openly , that one person who will tell you where to get
off when you start acting all arrogant and big headed, that one person who will
be there and not judge you when you fail instead take you out for a movie just
to help you shake off the bad mood, that one person who will love you as you
are and embrace you even when they feel a bit jealous , these are friendship
relations , they look attractive from a distance but hard to maintain .
I have learned that as much as its important to spend time
on your own its good for the soul to have good friends and be around folks who
will stop everything to just be there
for you . These are friendship relations
, they are like seasons yet we sometimes prefer them to stay neutral which is impossible when you are
dealing with human motion. New beginnings come
with a lot of change and growth , meaning when the friends you grew up
with starting saying “you have changed “ in most cases its them who have
changed and cannot handle the progress in your life , these friendship
relations are diverse in every way imaginable and to narrow them down will be
delusional thinking on my part .
I cannot erase the memories I have shared with folks I knew
as a kid , as a teenager and as an adult , as the love there is too strong to
be shattered by any bad feelings about
things we cannot even change , point is people grow up , some focus on making money ,
being selfish and spending life as a spinster, some start families and build
their nests so big that it warms their heart with love , some travel and
explore other cultures because they feel lost in their country of birth and are
constantly yearning for meaning in life
and then you have those that just want to belong . These are friendship
relations , they truly are a blessing and a learning path that never ends .
