It's great to purge...and Eight Things

Last night after my rant, I felt the need to text those around me whom I call friends and whose friendships mean the most to me... a simple text just thanking them for being in my life and for being who they are.. because as individuals and as a collective they each bring something very different but enriching to my life. We tend to overlook sometimes the powers of friendships and the warm feeling that a simple text, call or an email from a friend engenders.

I received a text last night from a very good friend, prior to her reading my rant and also prior to my own text, that friend was apologizing for not being there at times when I may have needed or wanted them.. and it warmed me to know that thought was given to their contribution to our friendship... but in all honesty not hearing from said person never bothers me simply because I have come to know them well and accept them wholly for who they are all shortcomings included. What matters to me is that on those most needy occasions they were there. When I need a sharp kick to wake me up I can expect to get it, at all times I can expect and know that the advice given would be sound and helpful.. so to that friend....... no worries I know that you will always be there when I really do need you.
