We've all had friendships that started from either work or school and it just made since to befriend these people because they were part of our everyday lives. But if you're lucky enough, you have made a few unexpected friendships throughout your life. I have made some very unexpected friendships in my life and these are friendships that will last a lifetime. By unexpected, I mean people who walk into your life without you going to "look" for them. My time in college has brought about a few of these friendships.

These types of friendships are probably the best ones because they come when you least expect them. Some of my hardest times, when I really needed someone, I was comforted by friends that I never thought would be there for me. It's crazy to think how close you can become with someone in such little time, in the least expected way.

I think getting close with someone who you would have never expected to get close with is one of the best things to happen. You realize more about yourself as a person and it really challenges you to step out of your comfort zone and be more accepting of different types of people.

I have learned many life lessons from unexpected friendships, like anyone can seriously come into your life and change it for the better. Don't ever count anyone out of a friendship because they may not be just like you or someone you could ever imagine being friends with because you honestly don't know what can come out of it.
