On Friends

Judgement

If i have tattoos, I’m a trouble maker. I have curves, so I’m fat. If I have long hair, I’m out of control. If I say what I think, I’m an asshole. If I cry some times, I’m a sissy. If I have girlfriends, I’m a messing around. If I stand up for myself, I’m arrogant.

Seems like you can’t do anything now a days without being labeled. So what, go ahead and label me, see if I give a crap.

Friends

Recently, life has tough me a new lesson about friends.

Amongst the many types of friends, two types stand out. Those who wants to be like you and those who despise who you are.

Those who wants to be like you will adore you, help you up when you fall, listen to you, give you advice, share your pain, share your joy, will share the joy of your achievements.

Those who despise who you are will walk over you when you down, drain your energy,  criticize everything you do that they cant do, rule your life, want nothing for you that they cant have either in breaking down your achievements.

The sad thing is that we all have friends like this.
