Dont feature

One thing I must say I have learnt in the past few years is that friends should never "feature" by feature I mean stay loyal or move onn, when we where younger the ages of two to thirteen you had one best friend and other friends. We always chose sides and we stick to being loyal to one friend, its actually like the stage before you grow up and get involved in gossip or people start spreading lies about you. Looking cool or being the "it"group none of this mattered when we had pig tales.

This is obviously a no go area for family, I will go to war with my sister literally, no matter how much in the wrong she is, she is my sister and that's that. At home we where raised this way, to take care of each other. Obviously I will be going to war with her telling her, "look you are wrong, but we must finish this".

Something inside me wishes that these things still happened, that when people are not talking or friends have drifted apart other people don't make it their mission to add paraffin to the fire or well build a bigger drift amongst friends, its sad that at this age people find joy or satisfaction to listen and spice news and opinions to hurt one and other's. When will we grow? or consider each others feelings?
Its about time that people realised that, you should not be listening to people that say "omg, she said this that or the other"that news birdie must have said something as wel. I think its also about the friendship loyalties we lost loooong ago. How can you play middle man between two people that are not friends????impossible there is one that you are closer to and dont use that chance while they are off to be their "best friend"its not going to happen. I believe no friendship replaces another and all friendships have different capacities.

I used to be the type of friend who would have gone to war with all of my friends, till I realised not all my friends would go to war with me, this was in high school but the older I get sadly the less I see of soldier friends. Make no mistake I love my friends but I have learnt to control and manage my love for them. I don't want to say that people grow up to lose their back bones but hey, maybe going with the flow is such a major trend that we forget how to be a friend. There are people in my life that are just there because they are, they are no longer people I consider my friends, they are just people.

My mother always says, "yho you have lots of friends". I actually don't mom, I'm a friendly person that's easy to get along with and all those people are people that I get along with. Something my dad tought me is that in life you must be versatile but while being versatile you must have a back bone, and mama has always taught me to stand my ground no matter what. Never go around picking fights if someone picks a fight with you stand up and fight for yourself.
...We have all in our friendships hurt someone or have been hurt along the line, its like relationships really once bitten twice shy its so hard to trust or depend on anyone thee days because you never know who's sipping on tea spreading your top secrete...
