I saw a beautiful picture. It was a picture taken 10 years ago. Their eyes were gleaming with hope, aspirations and innocence. It was a picture of a true friendship. Ten years passed and the friendship blossomed as the faces in the picture matured. I know because I just saw their current picture. Most of them are married. But still they have maintained the purity of the friendship. Now, I cant help but ask myself, do I have friends like them? Do I have friendships that bloomed all these years?
I knew once I had very close friends. I have never spoken to them in a very long time. It was so long ago but during that moment I thought I felt the sincerity among us. Why did it had to happen? Did we cross the invisible line? Was the friendship formed in the foundation of the sand? It was so long ago but I think I can still feel the pain. Maybe that's why I don't have the courage to open up myself again to new people ... those people I treasured as my dear friends were the first ones to break my heart into pieces.
Maybe I have to forgive ... Maybe I have to forget ...

Friendship and Love
Friendship is a special kind of caring ... special moments shared ... Friendship is forever.
Love is growing ... growing as individuals, encouraging each other, helping, listening, respecting.
Everywhere I go I feel love, I believe in fairy tales.
LOVE ... glows from the eyes of faith ... comes from the deepest of thoughts
is uttered from the lips of truth and blossoms ... from the purity of heart.
LOVE is sharing ... sharing the newspaper, an ice cream cone, romantic moments, a home ... sharing laughter and tears, your innermost secrets and your craziest ideas ... sharing a life.
LOVE is giving, taking, understanding, forgiving and so much more ... and for me LOVE is everything we are.
"You might ignore what is available to you easily. But you must regret once you lose it. Only a man who esteems blessing is a happy man."

Friends for Keeps
Last night, I went out with my long lost friend. I never realized how long has it been since the last time we saw each other. I also realized how disconnected I am to my friends, my real friends. So we went to this bar & grill restaurant at Vivo City, gosh, I can't remember the restaurant name, it was my first time to go there. The food was ok, nothing special that would separate itself from the rest of the other restaurants that serves the same menu. Maybe that's why I cannot remember the name. I'm sorry. :(
The important thing is, we got reconnected. We've shared our own dramas in life. (Who doesn't?!) Its a good feeling that you know you still have friends who are genuinely interested on what is going with your life. I guess if you have people like this in your life, you have to hold-on tight and don't ever let them go, because genuine friendships are one of those investments that do not cost you money but the returns are high.
