A message to friends...
somewhere b e t w
e e n
the
procrastination....
and the
homework.....
and the
incessant forwards.....and
jobs....and
the
friendships..... and
the
calls
to each other complaining about
crushes!!......
Somewhere
b e t w e e n
the
phone
calls
to
old friends.....
And the
"I miss you's",
the
"I
love you's".......
And the
"What
are we doing tonight's?".....
And somewhere
b e t
w ee n
all of the changing,growing... Somewhere
b e t
w e e n
the
classes........
And the skipping
classes......
And the
studying for tests.......And
the
pretending to st! udy for tests.......
And the downright
NOT
studying for tests...
I forgot.......... I forgot what
life
is all about. I forgot what it meant to
cry.......
I forgot that
pretending
to be happy
doesn't make you happy...........
And that
pretending
to be
smart doesn't make you smart ............ I forgot that
you can't
just forget the past
in
fear of
the future..........
I forgot that
you
can't control falling in love...........
And that
you
can't make yourself fall in l! ove...........
I learned that
I can
love.........
I learned that it's
okay to mess up.........
And it's
okay
to ask for help.........
And it's okay to feel like crap......... I learned it's
okay to complain and
whine to all your friends for a whole day........
I
learned that sometimes the things you want most
you just
can't have.
I learned that the greatest things in life are not the
parties
or the
DRiNKiNG
or the
hook-ups...
It's the
friendships,
which means taking
chances........
I
learned that sometimes the things we want to forget are the things which
we most need
to talk
about..........
I learned that
letters from friends
are the
most important things.And
that sending cards to your friends makes
you
feel better.
But, basically,
I just learned that my friends........
Both
o l d
and
new.........
Are
the most
important people to me in the world.
AND.......without
them, I wouldn't be who I am today.....
So this is a
thank
you
to
all of my friends.
.
For
always being there. And even if we're not on good terms or we have lost
touch... I still care for you
