What is friendship? I had a great friend once. That's all I can think about now. I really miss that friend. I even wrote her a letter that I don't plan to send her... Or I don't think I will. All my friends now are more acquaintances than anything. I have some good friends. But I don't really think that they miss me all that much. If they did, shouldn't they put in more effort to talk to me? It seems I'm always the one calling or e-mailing.
The other day I was watching Ai Kago talk to some one in a forest that wanted to kill himself. She was trying to convince him not to. When she asked him who he had that depended on him, he said his cats. She said "see? who would feed your cats if you died? They need you." I know what she was trying to do was very admirable. But come on! His cats needed him? They would probably eat bugs or mice. They might eventually escape and other people might take care of them. So what does that mean? That a lot people in this world are not needed. I guess I'm one of them cause not one of my friends seem to really care. I had a friend that once did. But I was stupid and now I don't have one anymore. I guess that's life....
I' d say i have to totally agree! I have a great big whopping total of 1 friend. Well 1 friend that i see and talk to every few weeks or so. But other than that i don't talk to too many people. You really do find out who your true friends are once your faced with reality. Mine was when i had my son. Once i had him, those who always said they would be there were never there and soon became just random people of my past. I guess all we ever have is ourselves. I'm sure your brother would agree, I'm just glad to have your brother as my best friend.
