Friendship


My friendships, and relationships with them. What makes a friend? What makes a best friend? What makes a good friend? Who decides what their friendship is? I’ll let you in on my friendship path.


My whole life, I wanted a best friend. I’ve had best friends when I was in elementary school, but after that, I got lost. My life changed and my friendships with people changed and new people around changed all that.

My bestfriend.I searched and searched for a best friend. I’ve had close friends, but long lasting bestfriends, I couldn’t find. So one day at a dance, I found the ultimate best friend. My husband. He covered all areas of friendship and only after 8 months he asked me to marry him. He is my best friend and it took so many years to find him.

My good friends. The people in my life that I consider like family are awesome. They are thoughtful, giving, loving, sharing, caring, helpful, understanding, and most importantly selfless. They care about others sometimes, not all the time, but sometimes, more then they care about themselves. They are great friends. I’m proud to say they are my friends and happy to think they are my friends.

My friends. These are the people in my life, I know well, maybe not well enough, but good enough to know that I love them just so. To be my friend I am glad you’re part of my life, in anyway you are. You brighten up my day just talking, smiling, and understand with me.
To all my friends, Thank you. Thank you for listening to me. Thank you for sharing your life with me.


For you to know, as my friends. Its been hard lately for us. Our circle of life is taken big steps, maybe for the better, maybe even for the worse, but as we’re going through this journey, it has been hard, is hard, and is going to be hard. Support from you is important, but not mandatory.
As friends I thought this tidbit might help.


Love,Crystal

Crystal, we do need to get together! I know exactly what you mean about friends, and I do miss your sweet spirit. I hope all is well with your family, I do hope you know I do think of you often. Know that whatever you are going through is only a moment, it will pass - and hope you are the better for it. Know you are NEVER alone. Let's plan a girl's night out. Let me know when you are free.
