Just got off the phone with a friend I havent REALLY talked to in a long time. Things got bad for them and their life went in a bad direction. I honestly wish I had stayed in better touch and been there even through the murky times. I wasnt as much as I should have been, and I stopped them today while they were apologizing for the way they went sideways....and I apologized instead. Because thats what you do for people you care about...your friends...thats part of the definition of a friend. You stick. You see through the bad things that someone you care about goes thru because you know what awesomeness is still there waiting to get out again. Selfish is not part of that definition. Our talk couldnt have come at a better time, and this year I will make it a point to be a loving, understanding, selfless person who sticks by the people I love and care for. Im not one for resolutions for the new year...but this one Im fine with. More than fine with. Everyone goes thru something at one point, and we all deal with hard times differently. But we build frameworks around ourselves to help hold us up when we cant by ourselves. I dont ever want to be a weak point in someones framework again. I post this thought to make others think a little and hopefully influence my nieces, nephew, and younger cousins. Love each other and take care of each other ❤️ Have a great week all.
