A friend is there to remind you of the truth........away. Earlier today I was hanging out with a bunch of my friends. I was being silly/goofy (as usual) and I said "I'm a horrible person" in reference to some sarcastic joke that I made earlier. A dear friend of mine was sitting next to me. She said: no you're not. She didn't make a big deal out of it. She didn't try to "reprimand" me for my joke. She just found it necessary and right to make sure that I knew the truth. It's interesting. because even though I would have said that I didn't seriously mean that I actually thought I was a horrible person........ deep down....... there was a little part of me that did. Why else would I make a joke like that? I tend to think that most jokes that we make at our own expense (Or at the expense of others) hold some sort of truth in our lives. There's at least a small part of ourselves that really believes the sarcastic comments that we make (which is why we make them). 'Friends remind you of who you really are. Even when you forget!' 'Certain things change us-- deaths, truths, lies, people leaving, people coming, people staying but leaving your heart, memories, and the people in these memories. They change us. Good Or Bad, we attach ourselves.....'
