Friends Are...

Friendships are complicated.

As life goes, 

meander, 

and ages,

so does the people in our lives.

Rotating, 

evolving, 

coming, 

and going.

Some stuck with us

A small portion flourishes into flowers

A tiny slice of that produces collective sweet juicy fruits

But most goes away

They change soil

Repotted to bigger better pots

Growing roots

Or wilted by nature 

Watering friendships is not like watering plants

Sometimes even water is not enough to keep it alive 

and thriving 

For better or worse

So the question is

How much is too much to invest

and give

and compromise

and sacrifice

to keep friendships alive
