Something weird happened tonight. Good, but weird. I was running for my 5k training, finishing one of my cycles. Then I received a text from my friend asking me if I was home and that he needed me. So I ran back home and had changed when he pulled up. He and three other kids came in and told me they were on a scavenger hunt for their youth group. One of the things they needed was a friend who didn't attend the group, also known as me.
So the rest of my night was spent driving around the nearby neighborhoods, searching for things such as speeding tickets, pictures of clock towers, and Nintendo games. We actually ended up winning too! It was a ton of fun, and a great way to spend a Saturday night.Only bad thing is that all I've consumed since running 2.3 miles is 2 things of ice cream and three pieces of pizza. So currently I am watching Firefly and nursing a sick stomach.
The best thing about this night, though, was that it finally put some things into perspective. I have friends who love me and want to be around me. And those are the only friends I need. These fair-weather, convenience friends who treat me like dirt shouldn't be in my life: they aren't worth the time and energy. Please don't think you owe these people anything, the ones who like you when it works for them. Recognize who your true friends are and stick close, because those are the ones who'll never forgot you. Sometimes they'll even take you on wild adventures. Good night guys x
