As children we are encouraged to make friends. We are made to feel less of a person if we had no friends or even one friend. Some of us would wonder from click to click just trying to fit in. As an adult I realize that some of the people that I thought were my friends growing up were not actually true friends. They always made me feel like I wasn’t pretty enough or that I was too nice. I have learned and it is my own personal experience and beliefs that true friendships are those with people that love you no matter what. They will never judge you or make you doubt yourself. They will tell you what you need to hear not what you want to hear. They are compassionate, understanding, loving, non judgmental, funny, crazy(in a good fun way), and they let you be the person that you are and still love you for it. I am grateful for those friends in my life and I cherish them very much.
