Friends

Friends are funny things. They come and go throughout our lives and we learn something from them. They are our affiliated family so to speak. The specific people we choose to associate with. We love them and hope the best but we must watch them make choices and learn from mistakes. Its hard sometimes to watch people suffer from their mistakes. Or simply from loneliness, sadness, or anything associated with those terms. We wish they knew how it could be or what we know to help them. But if they choose to not be helped then what to do? We cant make them listen or take the advice. They may not see it as something beneficial. We all have suffered from pig headed-ness. I included. How much time and energy we waste on things that do not matter or are so unnecessary to go through. We can always learn from others experiences. I understand the value of learning for yourself through trials but we don't always have to do that.
