Friends. That is what is on my mind today. I've had many friends come and go in my life and for the longest time through middle and high school, I felt like everyone had a best friend but me. There were those that said they considered me "one of their best friends" but I never had that "Beaches" friendship like Bette Midler and Barbara Hershey had. It wasn't until college that I met my very best friend, a friendship I never thought I'd have.
We've been through almost every possible situation you could imagine and we're always there for each other. Of course we have out little ins and outs with each other, things that make us mad, but our friendship is so far beyond that. I know her heart and she knows mine and we'll always take up for each other as long as we're alive. College is soon coming to an end and it will be hard to live far away from her, but we've already lived in different states for a semester and when we saw each other again, it was like we'd just seen each other the day before.
It's hard to find good friends that bring you up. Veronica and I will always be bff's. I recently just watched "The Women" for a second time and I finally could relate to one of those friendship movies. Those silly, heart felt friendships you see in movies aren't just in the movies, they can be real, but are rare. I'm thankful for mine.
