its easy to assume that one of the scariest things about moving from one city to the next is saying goodbye to your friends. friendships are built, treasured, sometimes laboriously dragged through tough times, counted on, depended on, taken for granted...and of all friendships, for a girl, I would have to say your closest girlfriends make up a beehive of a world full of shared secrets, love, problems, heartache, fights, work, discussions, nights chatting away or dancing till the morning- but all activity happens within this little beehive. a girlfriends code is pretty strict- "no information is allowed to leave this circle"- and thats what makes these relationships tighter and tighter. wrapped and sealed together in bonds of trust and faith.
I lead a remarkable volatile life...and I'l be the first to accept that. My life suddenly bends, twists, turns, drops, soars- i cry, lose my mind, am elated, take a risk, find my footing, fall all over again- and with the speed of a spinning darvesh!! and through it all, my girlfriends have been there to support me like pillars of granite. I have heard from them, that I am as demanding as friend as I am giving, and I hope that is true- because what else is a friendship except for complete acceptance, complete honesty, complete love?
I should hope, that when I move and make new friends, they should also be able to say the same about me- because a friend to me is someone i CAN take for granted. and someone who knows beyond a doubt, that nomatter the petty differences we might have no and again,against the larger grain- I would never let them down.
I'm really going to miss my girlfriends....
