I feel, genuinely, that I really love my very close friends and family unconditionally. Even in those moments where I disagree with what they are doing or when they aggravate me to no end, I still love them, it's just a little harder to see. So sometimes it is really hurtful when these people are unable to love me in the same way.
I never have really understood why one would keep a friendship that was only hurting them. Or why someone would simply ignore the fact that their friend had such poor and selfish intentions in nearly everything that they do. For example, I have a friend who really is one of my "closest/best" friends. I love him unconditionally, although I don't always like him. But I am constantly having to censor what I say around him. He is very quick to judge me, and lead those judgments into an argument. It has gotten to a point where he barely even knows what I really do with my time because if I were to tell him some of what I do, he would jump all over me and tell me how he can't associate with me unless I stop because I am only hurting myself.
It's kind of hard to see who is doing the right thing- the friend who turns their back because they disagree with the person or the friend who accepts the person's down points and remains their friend. What do you think?
The rest of this week and the weekend should be very exciting.
Tomorrow (Thursday)- Rock climbing clinic at REI with my good friend Carin.
Friday- Hopefully a quick massage and a day to clean and prepare for Sunday.
Saturday- An all day art festival in New Jersey with my friend Sara with performances by Jonatha Brooke, Shawn Colvin, and Ani Difranco.
