Friends and family...

I watched "Up in the Air" No not because Clooney is hot...no homo but he is. It was a great movie. Not to give anything away but it hit me....We may never have that "one true realtionship" but we have others.

Family...For most of us our family knows us the best. They shaped our lives and influenced who we are today. Family helped turned us from drooling pooping infants into drooling pooping adults that can clean up after ourselves. Even if we don't have a great relationship with family they are still family. We tolerate thaem and wish them well. If it's bad we still have the oppurtunity to forgive and make amends. For the most part family is there when you need them. hopefully you are there when they need you. They will see you at your worst and be there for your best.

You can't choose your family but ou can pick your friends. They are kinda like boogers, some are worth keeping around till they are crusty. True friends help you move and dispose of bodies...these are the friends that will have your back even if you started the fight. The good friends will also hang around when the doo-doo hits the fan. A good friend knows how to motivate and encourage you, but they wil also call you on your BS.

Friends and family should aks for nothing in return. They do what they do out of love and respect for you as a person. But I ask can you do the same in return?
