I've been doing a lot of reflecting lately. Partly because I'm dealing with a lot of issues within my circle of friends and partly because I'm freaking out worrying about life after May 21. Either way, I'm very happy for the very few friends I have. Recent events have really helped me see. It's so interesting how many different levels the people you call your friends can fall in. Not that you want to classify your friends, but I think its smart to know who 's who.
At the top, I have my friends I can trust with everything. Everything. These are rare. I know I'm a pretty reserved person with regard to my own issues and problems but I know that L, W, and K are there. We have disagreements, but we get over them. And it's a give and take relationship where I listen to them just like they listen to me. I'm SO appreciative of the fact these people are in my life and I think I might not show it enough so I'm going to work on that.
The next level of friends are really really good friends as well. I think that's where the majority of people everyone thinks are my best friends or in my clique fall. This is not to say I don't trust these people. However, they aren't as open as my friends at the top with sharing, or I need to censor or not discuss certain topics around them because of their reactions and actions after hearing it. OR these people get along with me really well and we kick it on the regular, but we don't really talk.
It's just interesting to think about.
Anyhoo enough babbling
