recently i have been presented with a dilemma which demands immediate attention. do i honestly have friends or just people who say they are one day but they next, they are throwing my name in the dirt, kicking it, & spiting on it to top it off. the answer to this question: i honestly do not know. when you are a child friends come and go. sometimes you meet that one who you know will be there forever i.e. the best friend. my best friend is like my sister..i call her my twin. we have known each other since the 4th grade & so far she is the main one who has always stayed true. through thick & thin, she has been there and likewise, i have been there for her. the thing that boggles my mind is the friendships i have acquired as i get older have not been as true. in no way, shape, or form am i saying that i have always been the perfect friend. i have my faults and i know that i could do & be better.
