it goes both ways

A relationship. It's supposed to be a two way thing. I talk. You talk. I call. You Call.
It usually doesn't work this way. I do a favor and I get nothing in return. I guess it teaches you a good lesson in selflessness but beyond that there are times where a friendship needs to be concrete. A friendship has to go both ways because otherwise you end up stuck in your own head, nothing goes beyond the walls of your thoughts and there's no one there to try and knock down those boundaries to build a solid relationship with you. There are times where I truly wonder who my friends are. Of course, they're there, but you can't help but to ask yourself who actually cares. Who actually goes out of their way to see you and hear from you and who you are pushing to see you because they wouldn't if they didn't "have to." I've said this from time to time. My mother always says that I have to be a part of any friendship too and I have to make an effort but I strongly believe that I am the only one pushing nearly begging to see others. Any-who, happy fourth of July everyone! Best wishes today during America's Birthday!

Love and a little joy,
