FRIENDS?

So in the past few weeks,i have really learnt a lot about friends, what they really mean in our daily lives. When u are pretty close to someone and that person disappoints you, its really leaves u hurt and makes u wonder if this friend actually cares. A friend is supposed to be there for you when you need him or her the most, you know what they say... a friend in need is a friend indeed. There is this friend of mine that i consider a really close he's like one of my best friends. Even if it is 11.00pm and he needs ma help i would get up from my sleep and go help out cuz i know what friends mean to me. However when i needed him the most to take delivery of something for me that the deadline was pretty close, even in a week he had not taken delivery of any of the items even though i called him almost everyday to remind him. Now would you call that a close friend? i was really hurt and haven't spoken to him since, and he has not called to apologise either. I updated my facebook status saying... that the biggest lesson i have learnt in the past week is the power of silence... even a fool who holds his tongue is considered wise... under normal circumstances, i would have called these 'friends' of mine and asked them why? but i decided to keep silent. If for one reason or the other you could not fulfill a promise, or keep an appointment and you cannot call to explain or apologise, then why should i call and ask for one. Who the cap fits let them wear it! God made friends for a reason, because he knows that we need people to lean on, to share things with, to laugh with and spend time with. My advice to you, don't take your friends for granted, because the friends you meet on your way up, they are the same friends you'll meet on your way down. You never know where you'll need their help in the future.

When you tell a friend something in confidence and he  he/she snitches on you, is this person truly your friend? what if in his defense he says that he was actually looking out for you because he wants you to seek help? the subject of friends and friendship in general can be really dicey. but what i say is just keep good friends and throw the bad ones out. Good riddance to bad rubbish lol

  4. ok, would be excepting your call but i doubt it if you'll be able to change my mind though. got nofin to say to him till he realises the need to call and apologise, then we can pick off from there.
