friendship
C.S Lewis got it right: friendship is born when one person says to another: "What! You too? I thought I was the only one!"
A Dream to Teach Perspective
I won't make up any names or descriptions of faces. I'll only tell this dream as I saw and heard it almost a year ago. I've procrastinated in sharing it. I remember I could almost feel the dust blowing through her shattered home. I'll describe every detail, making the dream seem longer, but it only flashed before my eyes a little more than 10 seconds.

“Jealousy is the art of counting someone else’s blessings instead of your own.” — Unknown. People become jealous when they see others having beautiful things, such as a large house or a happy family, since it makes them feel like they have been missing out.

An Apology to You.
I took a moment to sit down and have a heart-to-heart with myself. Yup, you heard that right. I had a one-on-one apology session, not for my own sake, but for yours. Sounds peculiar, I know, but bear with me. It was like a weight off my chest, dumping out all those unspoken grievances, even if they never reached your ears. It was a bit of self-imposed therapy, and it seemed to work wonders.

She is my friend… Her presence encompasses the embodiment of confidence, grace, raw emotion, anger, empathy, fierce protector, loyalty, coldness, intelligence, street smart, and complete love to those she trusts.

Kristen ViscardiPublished 26 days ago in HumansEASTER Time of Reflection
You wake up to a cool breeze. Dark as night your alarm hits a high. You shut it off for 5min but you really want 5 more hours. You lay there, in silence. As if to be meditating but really to look around your room. The space you now call home and wonder if this is it. All the years and experience brought you to this. Back in your child home where all you have is memories of happy times and surrounding reminders of what was. No dating, no boys or even intimate connections. Just happy memories that made you happy to be alive.
How to Deal with the Fact that Everyone We Love Will Die Someday
There's obviously a degree of pragmatism built into the human psyche, which enables us to carry on each day while somehow completely ignoring life's largest and most alarming truths. Yes, everything is meaningless, and we find ourselves floating about on a speck in an infinite universe, and we have no real idea how any of this came about, yet, for a time, one can manage to focus all their attention and care on the fact that they're running late to their morning shift at the grocery store. But every now and then these truths sweep over our awareness, and in an instant, the whole world becomes unrecognizable.

There was a friend from high school who saw me in an open meeting for alcoholics, families, and friends. She was crying. I thought she might be comforted by knowing someone. Wrong, she cried harder and as she pointed at me she said, “I knew you would be here!”

There’s something impossibly gorgeous about spending time with loved ones who knew me prior to my abuse. Those who held onto who they knew I was, even after manipulation and threats made me complicit in ripping friendships to shreds.
