Best Friends
All my life, I wanted a friend who thinks of me as friend. I've always had those friends where I think more of them then they do of me. Until now! She is not someone I met at church or at Harding. She is a person I met through my job...well my brother met her first and then he introduced us and we started hanging out when we would see each other at work. Funny thing is, she has the same values and morals that I do. Just goes to show that you don't have to go to church to meet people with the same values you have. In April, she asked me when we were gonna go on vacation somewhere. My answer: anytime you want to. Well, it didn't actually happen until the end of May.
You see, I was very upset with people at Harding because I wanted to go for graduation but I couldn't do to work issues. So I called my friends and they hung up on me and then shut off their phone for when I tried to call them again. I was upset for a few days. The thing that upset me the most was that I had just been to Arkansas for a visit just a few weeks before and apparently they were putting on a facade. I cannot stand people who are two-faced and who cannot tell me the honest truth even when I don't want to here it.
So that's when I asked this friend when we were gonna go somewhere. Well, we went to Argentina the very next week and let me tell you, it was the best vacation I've ever been on so far. We had a blast! I've gone several places with her now. We went to Florida to see her mom, I met her in LA on one of her overnights and I've been to Charlotte where she lives. In September, we are going to England, Scotland and Ireland! I am crazy excited about this vacation coming up!!
Since we came back, we have not gone a single day without talking to each other. We've learned so much about each other and the best part is, she tells you the truth and she helps you become a better person. A few weeks ago when we were texting, we were having one of our serious conversations and she told me that I'm one of her best friends! *Shock* I have never had someone call me one of their best friends before! It was and still is the most amazing feeling ever.
You know you have those friends who you think you tell everything to and they won't care what you did or how stupid you were being. However, they do care and their whole idea of you has changed and you are suddenly not as close anymore. Then you have that one person (or maybe two) who you can tell absolutely everything to and it doesn't matter what you did....they are still your friend. She is one of those people who will do stupid things with you, let you vent, be happy with you, and no matter what you do, she is still your friend. I've never known the true meaning of friendship until now. Thank you God, for giving me a friend who shows me what it is like to have a real friend!
