Authentic friendship doesn’t need daily follow-up to know if today’s affection is sincere or faded. There is no pressure or obligation to reveal every thought, every experience exactly when something happens.
Authentic friendships created in the magic of the wounded leave room and offer freedom. Because bond is nourished by trust and sincere feelings. Those same people who say almost wordless, that “I don’t owe you anything and at the same time I owe you everything,” I’m at your disposal when you need it. “
- I like these friendships that do not take into account time or space.
- People who life takes you for any reason and who.
- After months or years.
- Come back to you with the same complicity.
- As if it were only an hour from the last.
- Contact.
You can currently keep a childhood friend. This person you’ve shared school adventures with, running afternoons, games and street treats. Or it could be that someone new to your life has come at the best time.
They are intimate relationships maintained by healthy affections and sometimes even a little of that inexplicable magic that harbors hearts that connect with each other almost without knowing why.
Life sometimes spins more than a clockwise. We never know which direction we’ll take. Whether for professional reasons or for personal reasons when having new romantic relationships, we are sometimes forced to put miles between us and our friends.
Life is movement and only those who move can achieve their dreams with the tip of their fingers. This often means having to give up things: we leave our homes, our roots, and also those friendships of the soul.
You’ve probably been through this once. And it is then, in these moments of growth and personal change, that we discover who are the most important people in our lives.
On the other hand, there are these other people who understand and know how to respect. Concern and affection are always there, their affection is sincere, we know they are with us but there is no obligation to “watch”. We need words to understand that, despite the distance, they are still part of ourselves.
You don’t have to worry about leaving too many people behind, this is part of our personal growth process, because growing means having as little weight as possible in your mind and as much as possible in your heart.
Authentic friendships are very few, but they shine with the sparkle of diamonds: they are indestructible and will be with you every day of your life to give you light in dark days and harmony in moments of happiness.
There are friendships that come and go, like the warm wind of summer, bring us their experience, brighten us and dissipate with the delicacy of a brief perfume, leaving us with remembrance.
If you still remember a friendship you left because of the circumstances of life, don’t hesitate to reconnect with that person, if affection has always been sincere, if this intimacy was so magical, rewarding and fun that you still remember her today. with a smile, make sure you get it back. Because for genuine friendships, there is no time or distance.
