Grow in Love

      Not to long ago i got a new piece  for my room to hang on my wall. It says lots of things that every person should do in their life (find a passion, try new thing, be creative, ect.). One of the lines said fall in love. i show my dad the new piece to get his opinion. He looked at it an within the first 5 seconds of reading he exclamed, "no!" asked him what was wrong. he turned to me and told me, "no, you don't fall in love. falling hurts, you should know that better than anyone else with your arm. when you fall things break and you can put them back together but they will never quite be the same. no. you grow in love. because when you grow in love you are constantly learning. so that even if things do end you aren't broken, you are in one piece. and even though the little pieces might have changed abit, they will make you better, stronger."
    At the time i thought i understood what those words were suppose to mean to me, but i didn't. Today my best friend texted me and told me that she was sick. instantly i told her that i would come over to her house and bring her starbucks. i didnt even worry about if my mom or brother needed there cars because i knew i needed to be there for her.
    Me and melanie definently have a relationship that has grown. it has gone from were hangin out cause we dont have anyone else, to your really different then i thought, to wow your really my best friend, to your really like my sister, and it has taken time. and i realized tonight that our friendship is like what my dad described. sometimes people getting really close really fast and in the end they trust someone to easily and get hurt. but i have found my best friendships are the ones that i have grown in. the people i care about and trust the most are the relationships that have been taken them slowly.
    I can't wait until i meet that some one that i will get to know. Some one that i will get to bring their favorite food when their sick. Some one that will make me laugh uncontrolably and acted immature with. Some one who would drop everything when i need them. Some one i will trust on experience that they are trustworthy. Some one i will have a deep friendship with. Some one i will grow in love with.

Have deep meaningfull friendships. they just might change your life.
