Friends

As I really think and look back on my life, I've learned that your people won’t always be the people you think they turn out to be. Friends are easy to have and easy to find but the friends someone deserves are the ones who will shine light on you, make you feel needed, and lift you up no matter the circumstance. I’ve been lucky enough to have many friends over the course of my life, but struggled to keep close friends. I’ve realized that you don’t need to have a big circle. Having one or two people that you can really rely on and trust upon is something that is so valuable and something that everyone should have. I believe that in a true friendship, both people will provide support for you, trust you, and find the good in you despite what others may say. Friendship is not one sided, you both have to willingly put forth the effort. One of the biggest things i've realized with all the friends i've had is that jealousy will lead you to absolutely nowhere. True friends express selfless affection and will never try to take your light from you. My track record with friends has not always been so smooth but from my experience i've learned to grow and realize that everything does not have to be about one person and everything will not and should not be perfect. I’m thankful for all my friends I've had and do have, they've taught me some of the most important values of life. Go thank your friends for everything and remind them that you love them and are here for them always.

Love, Sav
