Friendships are like money: easy to make and hard to keep
- Samuel Butler;
Hi friends,
How are you today?
For today I chose:
Option one: Best friend
Tell us about your best friend. How and where you met, how or why you become such good friends and why your friendship endures. Also tell us a story about one your best moments spent with that best friend.
Introduction
When we were little, if someone asked us_"who is your best friend",_ we didn't hesitate for a second with the answer. The only problem (actually, it wasn't a problem at all, quite the opposite) was that we didn't just say one name, but several.
Then, as the years went by, the names became fewer and fewer. And the time to answer the question became longer and longer.
Until, at one point, you don't even know when this happened, you couldn't answer until after a long period of thought.
But most of the time you avoid the question and change the subject. It's true that people don't ask you that much anymore.
Because this world we're talking about would have the same reaction to the question that is becoming increasingly unspoken as the years go by.
The story continues,
I want to tell you something about my life.
I don't blog much so personally, the ideas have been quite general, but today just today when I was lamenting my lack of inner drive, my lack of desire to write motivated by the idea that nothing excites me and nothing disgusts me she gave me a reason to rejoice, yes, today we are talking about my best friend.
Long story short, as I was telling you about her, a friend I always feel like a warm, gentle, patient and steadfast blessing. We've known each other for over 10 years actually, it's improper to say we know each other, she knows me better than those around me know me.
In all those years, we shared tears and laughter, but there were things that made our friendship special, and that was taking our friendship to another level, marriage.
And yes, let me tell you that the most beautiful moment in our lives was the moment when we united our destinies, that happened in 2014, and since then we are inseparable day after day.
I can't remember a time when I cried and she didn't have something to say that healed me.
Over the years besides small problems I have had a few that have persisted or in which I have persisted with my typical stubbornness.
If one day, I told him 5 times, the same problem in the same way he would find 10 ways to tell me in the most detailed and thoughtful and mature ways a method, advice or relief.
I don't know if I can express how much patience he had with me. He's the man who never told me: "I'm tired of talking about it, why don't you finish it? Can't you see he's hurting you? words I have heard many times from other "friends".
She was never tired of listening to me, she never spoke badly to me and she was never indifferent to any sign of trouble.
When she talks to me I know that she gets involved in my problems as if they were her own and often forgets her problems to show me that I am loved, that I deserve, that I am worth it.
I swear it amazes me every time.
And although I can't express my thanks enough, I still want to tell her how much I appreciate her.
It's so nice to have a friend I don't know what others call her but I call her baby and she knows it.
In closing I have a question for everyone,
Do you think you could become best friends with yourself?
Thank you in advance for your upvote, appreciation and advice.
The text and photos above are my own.
It's great to be best friends with your spouse :)
With regards to your question whether we can be best friends with ourselves, maybe... But actual and real friends make life more fun and meaningful, so I think it's good to have a few or more even, depending on one's preferences.

Great post, it really got me thinking. With the comparison of young age and getting older, that's true, earlier several names would have come to mind directly. Maybe because you have experienced more with friends over time.. I don't think I can say that I have exactly one best friend :)
Today I stuck to the weekend topic, indeed I have a lot of people I interact with, but not all of them I can call my best, so I chose to talk about my best friend, which is my wife, but at the end of the blog I asked a question for everyone, if you could be best friends with yourself.
That's a very good question, but I have to say that I couldn't answer it at all or that I need more time to answer this question. What does that say about us? :)
