Friends
One of the most important things in my life are my friends..
what defines a good friendship? Oh, we all know that in the middle of our journey we will have a discussion or we won't like something. For me, It's absolutely normal.
All kind of relations are like a game. I send you the ball, you receive and decide how do you want to send me back. Then, you send the ball and I receive and decide how I want to send it back...
The responsibility of a friendship (and other kind of relationship) is shared between 2 persons... You just can play "the game of communication" with another person.
But, what defines a good friendship? Well, in my point of view I already had some discussions with friends that are really my friends and when we have a problem with something which we didn't like, we sit down and talk about it. If you don't say "I didn't like this" then anything will change. If you don't discuss it to improve your friendship (because communication it's necessary) then it's because you assume that that friendship doesn't worth... and it's up to you.
All discussions or bad moments that I had with my friends I decided to sit down and discuss about "what's wrong/what I/you didn't like" and we resolved the "problem", because, I consider that in a friendship and all relations we need to communicate!
Without communication there isn't any kind of relation.
Friendships can be better if you communicate.
If we don't communicate... then... what it's left? if you don't show what it's wrong your friend can't guess. And this is valid for all relationships.
I'm not trying to convince anyone about this. I'm just expressing my opinion about communication and relationships in general.
We're Going To Be Friends by The White Stripes
ReplyDeleteFall is here, hear the yell
back to school, ring the bell
brand new shoes, walking blues
climb the fence, books and pens
I can tell that we're going to be friends
Walk with me, Suzy Lee
through the park and by the tree
we will rest upon the ground
and look at all the bugs we found
then safely walk to school
without a sound
Well here we are, no one else
we walked to school all by ourselves
there's dirt on our uniforms
from chasing all the ants and worms
we clean up and now its time to learn
Numbers, letters, learn to spell
nouns, and books, and show and tell
at playtime we will throw the ball
back to class, through the hall
teacher marks our height
against the wall
And we don't notice any time pass
we don't notice anything
we sit side by side in every class
teacher thinks that I sound funny
but she likes the way you sing
Tonight I'll dream while in my bed
when silly thoughts go through my head
about the bugs and alphabet
and when I wake tomorrow I'll bet
that you and I will walk together again
cause I can tell that we're going to be friends
