Friends!

What is a friend?? Now friend is such a broad topic right? There's the guy that sits next to you in math that you talk to, there's your 872 Facebook friends, and there's the people you go to lunch with everyday. But what I'm talking about is a real, honest to goodness best friend. In my opinion there are certain qualities that best friends have that stand out above the rest. You can go through the basics of what everybody says a best friend should be; kind, trustworthy, honest, a good listener, has your back, will always be there. Now don't lie.. those are probably some of the first things that went through your mind when you first started reading. But what about those qualities that set your best and truest friends above the rest. What is it about those people that makes you love them and feel so blessed to have them in your life. From my own best friends this is what I've learned. #1 A best friend is always there. Now your probably thinking.. well yea duh... but let me explain. To me a best friend is there for you even when your not around. He/She is there to stick up for you when people are talking you down or saying mean things about you no matter who those people are. They stand up for you and won't allow others to think less about you than they do or to do things that make you look bad. They make sure that your included when people are leaving you out. They look out for you and for things that could hurt you. #2 A best friend really knows you. Best friends know what your like. I'm sure your thinking again.. duh. But I think best friends really know and admire the things about you that most people don't see. They take all your idiosyncrisies and the things that make you you and cherish them. They know specifically how to cheer you up. They know what you need and can read your face like an open book. Why can they do this? Because they care about you enough to know every part of you and to pay enough attention to figure you out. #3 Best friends don't leave. When you have a best friend you never have to worry about them leaving you. I mean you can't take them for granted thinking they'll always just be there. But you know that they'll always love you even when your not at your highest point on the morality or character scale. They don't look at you with an eye of judgement. #4 Best Friends mean the whole world to you. You know that you have a best friends when you can't imagine not being able to see them. When your about to start crying or are having a horrible day you want them to be the ones there to be with you. When they're not at school you just feel off. There a part of you and it makes your day to be with them or to talk to them. I have some of the best friends in the whole world. I'm sure that without them my life would not be the same. I've moved around alot and I'm positive that one of the reasons my family lives here is so that I could meet the friends that I have now. They inspire me and have helped me through some hard times in my life. I'm so grateful to have them and I hope everybody can find and appreciate they're best friends. They are so important and you never know when they could move, or be hurt, or could be removed from your life. So back in the beginning I asked you What is a friend? A friend is all that I've listed and so much more.
