amigos

At the glorious age of 18, I am truly blessed! Why? Well, cause of the friends, God has blessed me with. I don't know about you guys, but I have had the opportunity to create, nourish, and experience the relationships that most people don't get to do. I like to compare friendships, to my favorite pair of Jeans. As you get older, the jeans might fade, scratched, and maybe ripped, but they will always provide the same awesome comfortable feeling that you received when you put them on for the first time. Friendships might also get ripped or torn, but the internal feeling they bring, is like no other.

So what now? Ho do i keep my friendships from tearing? Well it is now my responsibility to keep the friendships I have, going. Cause everyone can agree that its pretty easy to make friends, but the hard part is actually keeping those relationships intact. In one sense, building a relationship is like building a house. Each nail, piece of wood, brick, etc, is critical in a house's framework. In a friendship, each memory, picture, roadtrip, etc only strengthens a friendship even more.

In my life, I have had the opportunity to have about around twelve close friends. These people are the people that would have my back if I was in trouble, would spot me if I couldn't pay for something, and so on. We have a mutual understanding that they have my back, and I have theirs. These are the people, you stay up till 6 in the morning playing COD MOD2(Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2), the people who you smoke cigars with, the people you travel 2000 miles to hang out with, the same exact people that love Jesus as much as you do, and are always encouraging you to pursue a better relationship with our Heavenly Father. These people are my friends, my brothers and sisters, my Amigos.
