Friendship....

"Some People stay in your life for a reason, and some sort of a season and few remain with us for a lifetime."

This line has really stuck with me and helped me understand so much. For most of my life, I wandered around wondering why friends I thought would be friends for life were no longer there for me. The fact is there are many different levels of friendships and relationships and if people were more accepting this fact they would ultimately be much happier.

If people would be more honest with one another and more clearly define what their relationship was it would save a lot of misunderstanding.

All the people that come into your life just are not going to be friends for your whole life and that is OK. Those kinds of friendships are rare. If you have one person in your life that is friends with you for life you are truly blessed.

The question always comes in my mind is.. Why is it that every opposite-sex relationship thinks they have to be boyfriend/girlfriend? why not friends. what's your opinion..??


 kinds of friendship

• THE SOCIAL FRIEND: This is often the type of friend that the majority of people have most of. This kind of friend is not someone whom you hang out with all the time or live with but you know them and associate with them at a bar, store, or some other public place. They are not good at sharing a problem with.

• ADVISER: This is a friend you go to when you need advice or just someone to listen to. You value their wisdom or at least the fact that they are good listeners.

• FUN BOY/GIRL: This type of friend can usually be counted on to travel somewhere with you at a moment's notice. They like hanging out with you whether it is going to the store or a bar or whatever. friends for passing a good time with nothing more than that.

• WORKAHOLIC: This is often the buddies that you simply have at work. a friend who is busy in his household works sometimes it be difficult to interact with him.. and sometime he will be away from the group.. this doesn't mean the end... if there is a good understanding between them.. friendship goes on

• LIFETIME FRIEND: This friendship is extremely rare and some say that in marriage relationships they stick together for all times and as a friend, they will be together enjoying life. This friend is all the above all rolled up in one. And some disagree with this point... So what do you think???
