Hug every friend.
Currently Listening to:!Policia! a Militia Group Records Tribute to the Police.
It's so weird how once you have friends you realize how little of a person you actually are. Not "little" in the sense of being worthless, but little as in one part. For example, I have a friend who(and I swear) is, that's right, IS my entire left brain. They remind me of myself a few years back, except for the fact that, for them, delight is anything structured, and, for me, chaos is a warm fuzzy.
Then there is that friend that IS you, only you of the oposite sex. Dude is not my boyfriend, but if you'd ever met him, you'd be able to tell that our friendship would become inevitable.
There's also the friend that IS the "little you". You know, the younger friend who looks up to you for guidence and misinformation. The little me is so adorable and SO loved beyond what she seems to understand. I honestly regret spending not as much time with her as I could. She packs one heck of a punch and when she hits you, you'll know it. Anyone who doesn't understand her will end up feeling sorry.
I've got other friends, like the Townie friend (The one whom you exchange stares with at school events, football games, etc., usually just to talk about how lame your town/school is), the friend who you know will go to a casino with you at least once when you're seventysomething, the "older sibling" friend (where you are the little them), and the crazy as heck friend (who you do weird crap with, free of substance [honestly!]).
When you think about it, it's almost like the body of Christ. Perhaps God is showing me this weird analogy to try to remind me how we all need each other. Different parts of the body need the other parts. You can't run your fingers through your hair without hands. You can't turn around in class without a spine. You can't enjoy strawberry milkshakes without tastebuds and you can't listen with your mouth (they tell you that one in first grade). We're all humans, and we're all in need. Let's just drop it all and tell each other
I love you.
