My mother told me as a kid not to talk to strangers. Actually, all our mothers told us that, if they were good parents. So clearly, being strange, I never talk to myself anymore, but what I don't understand is how anyone became friends.
Everyone was a stranger at one point in your life.
Your best friend in the whole world? Bam stranger! I have one and I can honestly say a year ago she didn't even exist in my world, but now I couldn't live without her.
Your parents? Strangers! It doesn't matter whose uterus you came out of. No one remembers their birth and if you do I am seriously sorry and you are deeply disturbed.
Your second cousin five times removed? Yeah... he's still a stranger.
So how do we make these connections in life and form these bonds that no one can question? The hell if I know, I am not God and my only point here was that friendship is beautiful and precious. Friendship is a blessing and should be cherished. No one knows how we find our person, and everyone will find their person or their people, it is just a matter of being patient.
Just remember to love your bestie as much as women in commercials love yogurt!
