To The Friends Who Stuck Around

Friendships come and go, but sometimes there are the ones that never go.

To The Friends Who Stuck Around
Sara Mitchell

You go through life having many friendships. Some last for awhile but then things happen and that person is not a big part of your life anymore. This can totally suck especially if you did not want the friendship to end. However, you can't make people stick around. Sometimes these people become too busy and it is not their fault. I would never blame a person that I was once close with for growing distant. Things happen and that's that. But sometimes there are those magical bonds that last from the day you meet the person and last a lifetime. These friendships show no fear in the midst of new boyfriends, fights, or even college. This is your Taylor Swift Squad.

These girls will always be there for you no matter what. Figuring out who will continue to stay in your friend group is completely unpredictable. A girl who was your best friend in high school, just might never speak to you again after graduating. People change, move on, and do not see the friendship as something worth their time. Personally, I found this originally frustrating but now I am able to see who my true friends were all along. The ones who are going to stick through the storm that life is. Rekindling friendships is so worth it. Just seeing that friend after all the crap you have endured since the last time you saw them, will make you automatically feel better. Happiness is going to Sheetz at 10:30 at night, and just laughing about random things. Reminiscing about those golden moments of your friendship is the best. It's nice to still call those guys you use to talk about on the daily by their nicknames and having everyone know exactly who you are talking about. Discussing old adventures all of you embarked on together are memories that will last a lifetime. Planning trips for the future after everyone is finally done with school is something to look forward to.

So to the friends that are still around, thank you. Friendships as amazing as ours are difficult to find. It is harder and harder to find something like this the older we get. So much in our lives is changing now, but knowing that I have you to count on, makes everything a little easier. Even though we all have our own things now, making time for this is so completely and 100% worth it. The older we get, the more I think about the future. We will be here for graduations, weddings, and our future children becoming friends. I could not have found a better group of friends than you. You guys are the Ron to my Harry. I love you guys.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.
