fellowship as a child never really comes to complete terms with itself. there are no limits, excuses, or certain expectations for deeming someone worthy of your friendship. if they are there and present they are all we need. the twisted part is that nothing has changed with age, we just create stupid divisions within ourselves. whether i was 6, 13, or 19, my closest friends have been those who are present and there for me, at all times. it is simple. be present. be here. and we will share in a beautiful friendship that only we could possibly understand enough to fully enjoy. i have only really met five friends who did that for me. they were always fully present. no texting other people while i was talking to them, no answering calls, no lists of to do's running through their heads. their time was my time and my time was fully their time. i have had enough of friends telling me how thankful they are of me when i help them see how great they are or help them when they need someone and they are alone. no. friendship shouldn't be conditional. it never has been and it won't be now that i'm 19 or in 4o years when i'm 59. no. friendship has NEVER been conditional to me. love me as i want to love you.
