holding hands

frienship is so sacred. it's like giving a part of yourself to someone. it's all about honesty, transparency, grace, forgiveness, integrity, faithfulness and above all: letting the other one 'be'.
a close friend emailed me asking if i made lots of friends over my side of the world. and. i started thinking.
it didn't get far when i realized how few they were. i'm not a "popular" girl. i'm not that 'girl' everyone will want to be around - maybe cause i might be too french for them. i don't have many friends but i rather have a few precious rare jewels than having many hypocrite b&?&es!
i am so careful at choosing my friends. i am not scared of trusting someone. but i'm not stupid. and want to choose them wisely.
i made many mistakes in the past. learned from them. cried. and now, i'm up again. in many ways, stronger. and i'm overwhelmed by the grace and forgiveness one gave me when she could've turned her back on me. this is why i know that true friendship is also about new chances. to remain. to keep loving. keep forgiving. and being.

this is for you my dear. because with everything within me, i cherish our friendship. and look forward to those years to come as we grow older. and. i can picture ourselves sitting down in a field filled with a flashy green grass, having tea and cupcakes!
and. look at me. i still have my teeth! and they're not fake!
