who knows these days who your real friends are. you can think that you have all the friends in the world, but are they really friends, or more like aquaintences, e-mail buddies, or just co-workers? i will admit, i have made real friends at work, but most of them are what i refer to as e-mail buddies. you see a funny e-mail and what the hell, they may get a good laught too, so you forward it on. that doesn't really mean that they are a friend. sometimes, i have to wonder, why is it such a big deal to have so many "friends"? I absolutly love my real friends! i will admit, i don't have a lot, butr the ones that i do have, i have had for most of my life and i honestly think that they will always be a part of my life! i have gained new friends along the way though and each time we hang out, that bond grows closer and closer. i just have one thing to say, Always know who your real friends are and keep them close, never lose touch and always be there for one another! to all of my friends out there who may or may not read this, I love you all!!!
