Reinventing The Meaning of Friend For Myself.


A few weeks ago, I got the chance to see some of my friends. All of these people I have met through the daughter of a family that has been our friends for years. As we were spending time talking and hanging out, I did my Rogue thing. I kinda just sat over in the corner, or in this case, the couch. The only person to join me was my boyfriend. I look at all these kids. Some I had just met that night, while others I have known for two years. Past crushes and confidants laughed at jokes, and it made me think. Aside from the mutual friend/family and my significant other, there were two or more people that I would trust with just about anything. These people are some of my closest friends. But when I think about it, they shouldn't be my closest friends. I talk to them maybe three times a month and see them in person maybe twice a year. Why in the world should I consider them some of the best kids I know? It doesn't make sense to me why I do this. I've always done this with the kids in this group.

I don't know.

But, in regards to my last blog, I now listen to the songs. Really listen.

Oh! Important! Mom started chemo today.
