Really Your Best Friend?

Poem written by: Samm Snyder

Best Friends
Someone to be there for you
Best Friends
Someone to rely on
Best Friends
Someone to tell you secrets to
Best Friends
Someone to call when you’re sad
Best Friends
Someone to laugh with
Best Friends
Someone to share good memories with
Best Friends…
But then there are those times when you hope that you didn't say the right thing and them mad. Or do the wrong thing and they get angry at you. Why do we think like this about our best friend? Best Friends should be everything above. Not someone that you have to worry them getting mad at you and hating you for a few days. Best Friends are people that you should always be able to get along with. If you can't, then are they really your best friend?

The Most Important Things in Life~

Sitting by the beach, feeling the warm air all around me, I wish that I would never leave. As I sit on white sand beaches of Hawaii I think to myself that this is a place to get away from the world around you. No politics, no gossip, no rumors, nothing is going on. By yourself, sitting as the waves crash on the shore and the seagulls fly through the air. I sit pondering, and I soon want this to be my new home. Move and live here: why not? Nothing could be any better. Then I think that I wouldn't really know anybody. My entire family lives back at home, all my friends, my future collage, and career. This would be the best place to live, but I would lose everything in my life that is most important to me.
