I realized last night that friends aren't something you put on a "to do" list. You don't list your friends name and put a checkmark after each one when you do something good for them. A friendship is something that needs to work at everyday, similar to a relationship. If you can't do that, you need to decide whether you want a few great friends or a lot of okay friends.
Friendship isn't something that you take for granted. It isn't something you put off until you have nothing else to do. When the world is crashing down, true friends are the ones that are going to be there, no matter what.
Stress shouldn't affect a friendship. Not sleeping shouldn't affect a friendship. Boys shouldn't affect a friendship.
Friendship is simply the acceptance of one person, no matter what their faults. But the fact is, all people judge one another. All people are selfish and want only what's best for them in the end. But when that one friend is in need, can you put that selfishness aside? That's when it really matters.
Although I realized all this, I also realized that I need to start reevaluating the people that I call my friends. And I also need to start reevaluated the type of friend that I am. I think we all need to do that.
Without people, one's life means nothing because there's no one there to share it with.
But sometimes, you have to let friends go.
