Friendship.

Okay, so there is this song by Celtic Thunder-one of my fave groups- and it's called Caledonia. Basically, what I really like about the song is this line that goes: " I lost the friends/ that I needed losing/ found others on the way/." Whenever I hear that line, I start to think about the friends that I have lost, and the ones that have come into my life that have changed it for the better. Then a little bit ago, I noticed a picture on our screensaver of our computer. It was me and a bunch of my friends during the summer of my freshman year. I'm still friends with only a few of them. I lost one to differing political views, and another to just immaturity and different schools. I'm not as close to two of my friends from back then, but we still hang out. One of them became my best friend. And then there are the new friends. I found someone who is so similar to me that it is scary, but she is so much fun to hang out with, and she greatly blesses my life. I found a friend at school whom now gives me great laughs and friendship, and who is also one of the only, if not THE only person, who reads this silly little blog of mine. I have discovered new friendships through my job, and I have been blessed. I guess what really struck me is that God obviously knew what I would need as I grew up. I no longer need Ashley and Masha, because I have Brittney, Nicole, and Emma. I don't need to be as close as I was to Emily, but I still need her frienship, and she may need me. I have a stron friendship with Bria, where there wasn't really one before. And I have an amazing best friend who I really don't deserve. I'm so glad that all of the people in my life are here, and ya know what? I'm glad that the people who aren't in my life are not in it. There is not one friendship that I regret-wiether it was losing or gaining.
