GETTING ACQUAINTED IN GETTING A FRIEND

We always look forward for a better relationship with others; it is indubitable that we want to place something special in the eyes and hearts of people who will positively craft a difference in our lives, difference that we will be proud to share with others and a difference that will speak of our journey as a person.

I always love to draw myself to other people. I love being with people especially with the people I consider FRIEND. They keep me safe and give me the confidence to be what and who I am. But how do you differentiate a FRIEND from an ACQUAINTANCE? When you are so fragile to become closer to these people without consciously realizing that some of them are, but a FAKE.

A dramatic change in my life placed me in various scenarios where I got the likelihood to reckon my criterion and label things slowly as whom is AUTHENTIC from someone just playing around the bush. THESE people are TALENTED and ROLE PLAYERS. They go from every detail of the plot until they reach the climax but will leave you hanging before the story fins.

I’ve been always trying to tweak with different people, as to what is more convenient and delightful for them. I always try hard to protract a balance but these people don’t keep me from reducing. AM I EXPECTING TOO MUCH? Or am I just AMPLIFYING my concept of friendship?

Sustaining friendship is not as easy as filling out a form and instance processing takes place. It takes time, and thus it makes life unpredictable. An ACQUAITANCE from a former STRANGER takes place and starts to evolve in your life, in an instant. They will long for your presence especially when you NEED them, but will get rid of you as soon as they get to suck your last nectar. THEY will INJURE you obscurely and play innocent of the crime; bust your sentiments and make believe that they are above suspicions.

To create, maintain and sustain FRIENDSHIP is a journey. We really get to meet different characters in our lives, some of them are impious, but most of them are versatile actors. But at the end of the day, equipped with consummate dramatic experiences, we CAN and WILL always detect the PHONY from the GIFT, A phony COMPANION and a GIFT called FRIEND.
