I have been thinking quite a bit lately about what it means to be a friend. And today, I saw this picture in tumblr and thought to myself, "So true..." Sometimes, as a normal human being I tend to lose focus on what it means to be a friend. Being a friend isn't about me. Being a friend means genuinely caring for the other person.
But then again, there are times when you get tired of caring and caring and not getting the care back in return. Sometimes, you might think why are you the only one putting effort into this friendship? Why doesn't the other person initiate anything? Why doesn't he/she care? This state is the most dangerous state of mind because here you tend to blur things between reality and your assumptions. I don't have a solution for this but always be the friend you want to have. And if your friend really doesn't care much about the friendship, you will know eventually.
What does being a friend mean to you? I'd like to know! :)

5 had something to say:
like that pict! *like*
friend to me simply means not being judgmental and accepting for who i am ;)
Love what the picture says. And I agree with Siyan. Acceptance and trust is what makes a friendship.
I love that quote. It's SO true! And a very good reminder as well. I'll have to go with Siyan as well, haha. :) It's all about acceptance and trust. Honesty plays an important role too. And if all that is present, the friendship is good to go! :) x
Yup, this quote has been a good reminder and I'd have to agree with all of you. ;) happy study break girls. all the best! xx
