In recent times I have asked far too much of my friends. I've asked them to come into hell and rescue me.
And the people I've asked that of, all have.
I would never have expected that of them.
Because I'm not them.
My friends are always a better version of me.
I've had wonderful, intense relationships with people, who have never faced any kind of test. We've drifted apart because people do. I hold their friendships close to my heart regardless. If we came into eachother's path at some point I believe we'd take up as we left off, because the friendships were based on things that endure like humour, likes/ dislikes, shared history.
But the friends I've made here, the people who listen, read, and do so much more - well those people I can't allow to slip away. If one does it hurts. But I'll always try my best to get back to where we were, to make amends, to pay back what they invested in me. These people have kept me alive.
I don't love them because they did this or that for me.
I love them because they are totes amazeballs.
