To find a few good friends, you start with a lot of acquaintances.
As I now belong to a particular all-girl group in my school, life became more interesting and whole lot happier and less lonelier.
The thing is, we're all so different, yet we love each other like idiots. People around us know how opposite we can be from each other, yet we are rarely seen not hanging out together. It's how we are.
It's impossible in a friendship not to fight. It happens a lot, and still we deal with everything and accept each and every one of those situations because we would all learn something from it and from each other.
And sometimes, there are things that we may not approve of what the other wants to do. We are concerned about each other, and so our concern shows we care. We may not like the guy that one girl chooses, but still we support her on what we wants.
Perhaps the biggest realization that I have to face is that while I can say to them exactly how I don't want them to do this and that, I cannot dictate their lives and what they do. I can't stop them from doing what they want, no matter how the situation goes. This is their life, and that is also who they are. As friends, we have to learn to accept them for that, because we are different, and we cannot mold them to think and be like us. I also learned to trust them to their decision, and trust them with the consequences they will handle along with what they chose.
That's what true friends do, to support them and to be there when they need us. It is their happiness, their inspiration, and we should be happy for them too, and try to eliminate any negative feelings we have.
Our differences are what makes us unique, and also ultimately keeps us together.
