"We are 
each of us angels
with only one wing,
and we can fly
only by embracing 
each other."
-Lucian de Crescenzo

I've always hated the phrase "everything happens for a reason". Anytime I have someone say that to me I ask them to then give me the reason, and that usually shuts them up. But it's always been my belief that people are brought into our lives for a reason.

To teach us things about life, and about ourselves that we could never learn on our own.
To help us discover who we are. And where the hell we're supposed to fit into this crazy world. 
Some people show us what love, friendship, trust, and happiness are.
And from others we learn hate, betrayal, disappointment, and sadness. 
No matter which category they fall under, we will always remember them.
Our truest friends will not only be simply remembered.
They are those that come into our lives leaving their handprints on our hearts.
They are the ones who help shape us each day.
Who laugh when we laugh.
Who cry when we cry.
Our truest friends are the ones who are standing there beside us when it feels like the whole world has left us behind.
THESE are the people we must care about.
For they are rare, they are beautiful.
Friendships like this have the power to change your life forever.
Do not let them pass you by.
