Friends, How Many Of Us Have Them?

An ode to my friends

Friends, How Many Of Us Have Them?

Friends are great! They provide lots of laughter and entertainment for the days you are feeling joyful. They also provide comfort and advice for when you are sorrowful or in a sticky situation. Some friends are fair weather, we call those associates. Then there are those friends who are their for you no matter what, we call those our brothers and sisters. Your brother and sisters don't have to be just biological to be considered your brothers and sisters. We calls these types of friends "siblings by heart".

It took me until my last couple of years of high school to realize who my true friends were. Some people say that if you find one good ,true friend, you've found a treasure that most people spend their whole lives trying to find. Luckily, I found a few of them. They are the types of people who are not scared to tell my the truth, whether I want to hear it or not. They are also the type that, no matter how many mistakes I make ( sometimes the same mistake) they are always there to console me and pick up the broken pieces. I feel very fortunate to have them be considered as my "sisters by fate".

My Challenge To You: Tell your friends you love them because it really is a blessing to have them.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
