Meaningful Things

That phone call last night really meant a lot to me. It struck me how little it takes to make me content. How little things like that can make me have this warm feeling in my tummy and forget all my worries in life for a bit. It also helps that I can see her again soon =D

Friendship is one of the things I value the most in life. I’ve built many friendships over the years, but only a few friendships have stood the test of time. Only few friendships have stood past the hardships in life and all the troubles. There are some friendships which I do not care for at this moment, some ‘friends’ aren’t even worth the trouble.

Sometimes I ask myself, “What have I done to make her not want to keep in touch with me?”

At other times, I say, “Forget about her. I’ve done my part in this friendship, if she only wants me when the going gets rough, I am not willing to be that kind of a friend”.

I’m not condoning that you shouldn’t help your friends out, by all means do help them out in times of need. What I do not condone is to only seek people out only when you need a favour and don’t bother with pursuing anything. That is definitely what I wouldn’t call a friend.

Back to the topic of meaningful things, I love it when people surprise me with little things, such as a thank you note for something that I might have done or maybe a little praise when I get things done right, you know? Am I asking too much? Or does everything else not matter anymore?

Zaneta, thanks for calling me last night. It’s been great to speak to you after so long =D Not sure if you’ll read this, but yea. Thank you.

It’s the small things that count.
