Friends come in all shapes and sizes, there's facebook only friends who you hide from when you see them at tesco's. There's friends who only pop up when they need something or want to arrange to meet up so they can spend hours whinging about anything and everything.There's childhood friends who you grow up with, no matter where you go, what you do they will always come by and take you back to the early stages of life, rooted in longevity. Though only the lucky ones will have the same childhood friends in all stages of their life. Finally there's life long friends whom you meet throughout various stages in life, who you see once in a blue moon but feel like no time has actually passed when you finally do catch up.
People tend to say 'pics or it didn't happen' so does that mean your friends are any less precious? because you don't have pictures with them? They also say your true friends are ones you have the least or if any photos with, though sometimes we worry that we rush to document our every moment with people to the point where you don't live in the moment. Rather than living with them, you're just documenting it. And granted, if you don't document it, chances are you will forget it. I guess I'm still trying to find that balance, between making sure moments are memorable without making them seem superficial.
A picture could hardly capture how deeply I feel for some of my closest friends, whether it's all the times of laughter, stress and tears we've shared or the times where we had no clue what we were doing, we've always had the support of each other to get us by, even if it is in the form of a 220 day snapchat streak.You know that they will always be there to listen to your problems, lend a shoulder to cry on, and cheer you up with their amazing sense of humour and comforting hugs.
No matter how far apart friendships seem so transient, but the ones that last are the ones that keep us going, or at least I'd hope so. Ultimately good friends are like stars, you don't always see them but know they are always there.
