Friends how many of us have them?

Friend is a term that is meant for people that are close to you. Some people like to throw the word around loosely. We all learn who our friends really are when we are in our darkest hour. A true friend will be there for the good times and bad. They will hold your hand when you need it held. They will listen to you when you need to vent or talk about something serious. They will go out and tear the town down having fun. A true friend will be there in your darkest hour and will care about you. Someone that is not a friend will just ask questions to be noisy. Don't ask me what happened just to find out. True friends look out for each other and give each other words of encouragement. I have a friend that was having a hard time and lost his job. I was there for him and would have done more for him if he asked me to. Others I know have brushed off the situation and not giving it a second thought. Some people are self absorbed and selfish. All they care about is who they will fuck next. Which new boy will be their next victim. My good friend of many years got a new job finally. I'm happy for him and he deserves it. If you see people pulling away from you something is up. I'm loyal until the end but don't cross me. Sometimes we have friends that test us, push us to our limits. That's when its time to let them go. You don't need someone in your life bringing you down. I recently had to let go of someone that I thought was a friend. Its a good life lesson to me. No matter how close someone gets to you.  If they don't act right its time for you to stamp that big D on their forehead and keep it moving. The word of a friend is something that you should trust and not have to second guess. Once that trust is gone and they are taking you for granted. The curtains are closed and the show is now over. When friends have good things happening in their lives. I'm truly happy for them and not a jealous type of person. We are all on our on time and things happen when they are suppose to happen. As I have said before some people don't grow. They stay the same as when you first met them doing the same things. Same shit different day they are just alive and not living life to the fullest..
