{ Do friends need to have meet-ups? }
As one grows older, one would be busy with work till he/she doesn't have time to catch up with friends. In Jan, he/she meets up with friends, then 6 months hiatus, oh let's finally meet up in Aug. Hmm. Then in between? MSN, SMS. Wanna talk problems with friends? Phone, SMS, MSN. Hmm. Weird, where did that face-to-face, heart-to-heart talk go to? Culprit: Work. Not enough time. Hmm I'm thinking, maybe I'm too free. Or am I one of them too, that's why God is putting me through all this. It's not ok if we don't meet up, if there is, wow that's a bonus. Should it be this way? I can't seem to accept it yet. So does that mean I'm immature? That cos I'm only 23, I don't understand the work life of an adult. Well maybe. But all I know, time is for us to manage. It's the same as exercising. You're fat cos you make excuses not to put in time and effort to exercise. Same goes to meeting up with friends; same, no? I don't know, this is not really a post for me to blame or be pissed off or whatever. But rather, just trying to look at it from different angles. OR is there only one point of view: busy with own life = not meeting up with friends. Definition of friends to me: Friends you can connect with and share problems with and stuff. Jan, meet up, Aug, vomit out everything you've done for the past 6-7 months. Oh wow that's a lot of stuff, we should meet up again soon to update. Next meet up: 10 months later. And the cycle goes on. Hmmm I'm just puzzled and I'm definitely not ready to accept this yet. Be it when I'm working; cos I know, I'll make time out for my friends if they ask me out. Or do I not understand what's the real definition of a friend. So, a friend is all one ever needs for his whole life; wait, is there even such a person in fact, that you're close/ so close that you would always wanna meet up and share stuff. OHHH I FORGOT; that would be your partner in life already! So, there is NO FRIEND in fact that would meet up often. Not even friends you know for 10 years and counting. The only ever true friend I have in my life; The Lord above. 11:26 PM • Thursday, August 05, 2010
