Just a reminder to my blog friends that I can't post on Typepad....but I am reading them!!!
Ok ...back to the regular scheduled post.....
This last week has had me thinking alot about who my friends really are. I must say that I have some very very good friends...and you know who you are.....I don't have to tell you....and I thank you for being there for me.....just when you needed to be...without me asking.....I am not the easiest of people to be friends with...I can be very closed off and seclude myself from everyone...I don't always make the time to call, email or post or hang out with ya when I should...I dont always extend myself out to you...and i know i should....it's not that I am not thinking of you...I am...but just so busy with life...so for those of you who stick by me time and time again.....I thank you. I did realize how many "FAKE" friends there really are too! Ones that pretend or seem to be there just to be there...not really caring. Maybe that is my fault...or maybe not. This past week I realized how many of these friends I have...whether it be on a MB or blog or in my life here... whatever...you all know who you are..and for the first time I actually felt like the outsider...is it me, my kids, my life...what? Maybe I need to be the one to intiate things and extend myself to others. In past experiences...i was the one who always got burned by doing that. So whatever happens happens...I am weeding out people who don't want to be or need to be in my life so I can concentrate on the ones who really do consider me a friend and who I consider to be a friend as well. I have no room in my life for people who can turn off in a second or will run the other way when you dont have the same views as them ...or are so quick to turn the other way when you have a difference of opinion.....I don't want people in my life that can't accept that people are different, have different opinions or are not forgiving of ones mistakes....Friendship is like a marriage....thru the good and bad...you stick by each other! It really makes me sad to finally admit that people who I thought were friends....really aren't So with that said....here is my new motto....
I Would Rather Be Hated For Who I Am Then Loved For Who I am Not!Have a great day my friends!
