For you, what is the real definition of friends?
Is it tiring? Is it fulfilling? Does it make you happy, sad, exhausted, mad, or anything?
"Huy, 'san tayo kakain?"
"Luh, kayo bahala,"
" 'Nu ba namang sagot 'yan."
I was listening behind my 'friends' as they walk ahead of me. I was in a circle of friends which i think is healthy.
Our circle consists of eight individuals, including myself. I think it was healthy because they were smart, motivates each other specially at the worst times and they're caring.
I was like a social butterfly, i easily befriend people who are new to me. This butterfly gets tired socializing but still get going.
But does the circle of friends still stay healthy if you cried so many times out of frustration because of them? The problems and being the bridge of your circle is hard.
Really hard.
Normal ba ang gumanap kapag may problema sa circle mo? Sa mga kaibigan mo?
Yung tipong nananahimik ka sa sulok, minding your own business and you'll suddenly see yourself between your friends just to keep the circle intact.
Let's just say that i'm a bridge. I keep my friends connected somehow pero parang magigiba na ang tulay na 'to.
Sometimes, i'm thinking if they also consider me as a friend or they're just letting me be. There are times as well na naisip ko na, "Kaya naman nilang wala ako, pero bakit ang sakit sa part ko na parang hindi ko kayang wala sila?"
Did i depend on them too much?
And now, I suddenly remembered the quotation of a famous philosopher, Aristotle saying "A friend to all is a friend to none."
And that slapped me so hard.
