11 Spending time with friends

I was a very lonely type of person (I still am a lot of the time). I am a very distrustful and closed off individual and I always have been. I say this, in case you are thinking of skipping over this section because you’re thinking ‘I have no friends.’ Because you know what, that might be true right now. I was there once too, I had almost two decades of evidence to back up the fact I was right. And I was proven wrong. I know you will be too, there are people in your life who are your friends and who care about you. 

Your friends are pretty great. They are people that have chosen to be around you, they are people who have chosen to like you, they have chosen you. That’s a treasure, and it is something that I think none of us appreciate enough. Your friends care about you, and they want to spend time with you, and they want you to stick around a bit longer. The hardest I have ever laughed in my entire life was sitting in a car, on the road to nowhere, talking about things that I barely even remember. The point is, it isn’t about where you are, or what you’re doing, it is all about who you are with. So stick with the people that bring you joy, and let yourself be joyful.
