 Friends | Life is too short for bs  CoffeeLeatheRip: 12 days ago • Report • Link  0 CoffeeLeatheRip: Have you ever noticed how lightly people take the word "friend"? Has society cheapened it to the point of no return? Whenever I think of someone as a friend, I think of them with warm thoughts, someone who's been there for you, a person who has your back. A friend who you've shared life experiences and had more than a 5-minute conversation. Online, you can be someone's friend in less than 5 minutes. No one takes the time to define the word. The more people on a list fill some kind of void and gets your numbers up. Can you talk to all 567 friends? Is it about being popular? People don't talk to the "friends" on their list, they leave them there to flounder and make themselves look better. Personally, I'd rather have 2 good friends, people I know, who I care about, who I want in my life, than to add a ridiculous number of people to fill some superficial void. Take the time to get to know someone, what's your rush? Find out their likes, dislikes, what makes them happy, cry, crazy. Invest some time in them as a person. It might be too much to ask in today's standards right? Not for me, maybe not for you either. |
