Late Night Drafts: Friendship
Okay, many of you know that late nights I type down some of my thoughts, sometimes I finish them and turn them into an over-5-paragraph essay, sometimes I don’t. This is the reason why I’m opening up this category. Here’s the first post for this new category:
Dear friendship, today I was wondering what is the meaning of your name and well, it made me think for a few minutes. I realized that sometimes you come bundled with hypocrisy and that you come in different favors flavors. I also realized that you’re not as loyal as I thought, I have to share you with many people and many have taken advantage of that.
As a geek, I searched for you on Wikipedia and this is what I got in return:
Friendship is co-operative and supportive behavior between two or more people. In this sense, the term connotes a relationship which involves mutual knowledge, esteem, and affection and respect along with a degree of rendering service to friends in times of need or crisis. Friends will welcome each other’s company and exhibit loyalty towards each other, often to the point of altruism…
Then, if this is true, it’s really sad. I am the only one who accomplishes with the terms and requisites of the definition. I’m the only one who’s willing to sacrifice ‘Getting some’ just to go the extra mile. And then, I dare to consider myself selfish.
So… why? Why do I use you as an excuse to be loyal to a third party? Why do you bitch at me so much by placing disloyal people in my circle? Why am I the one who’s always disappointed?
Dear friendship, I wish people would take you more seriously…..
