In my Heart...

When something sad is happening to the person you like, to one of your friends, you start to think. How to help, how to show that person that you are with him/her, that you care. And in the same time, how to leave him/her some space. Sometimes I know what to do. Follow some intuition, and this also fails sometimes... Just be for that person and let her know about it. Sometimes it is enough.
But it made me think of what friendship is. Question I am probably never going to find answer to. Maybe there are different kind of friends... With some we keep contact every day, with some just in the moments we want to talk, with some, when we want to party. Maybe we choose person to talk to depending on what we want to hear.
Some people say it is enough to be. To think, to remember. But sometimes we have to let that person know that we think. Otherwise he or she might think we had forgotten...
Friendship is like a garden that you have to take care of. Otherwise it is going to disappear and turn into a place you cannot spend time in. Place you have no reason to come back, because there is no tree that gives you shadow when the sun is burning, no place to hide you when it is raining and no place where you can sit and enjoy sun. Of course it does not happen fast. If it does, it was not a garden of friendship.
I know that with some people there is always a path to come back. But with some you lose something important. Those small things that are happening in your lives. The only thing you share is not about you anymore, there are only memories left.
But maybe this is not truth at all... Maybe friendship is something completely else? Maybe it does not depend on the time you share with someone but it is all about the things you share? Probably truth is somewhere between.

I heard one important sentence. That sometimes some people care about others the way they want to be cared about... now we have to open our eyes.

We all have our own definitions of friendship. We all have different needs. We all behave in a different way. It makes us so interesting. And it makes us special. We don't have to think the same about friendship, we don't even have to think about it, just live it. There is no universal right path. Those here are just my thoughts that I have in my mind from time to time, and feelings that appear in my heart sometimes. But they are not the one and only, the right and good. You may disagree and it is ok. Sharing something is precious.

Time is flying, we are running...But it is good to sit once in a while and think about our friends, and let them know about it! Sometimes it is enought to send a short message. Sometimes you feel the need to write long letter. And sometimes every other day you can leave a note like this one:
"today I noticed the sun shining stronger, and wanted to share it with you. Waiting for the spring. Yours, Kat."
