Who needs friends?

When we think about our friends and the comfort that we receive one person or two  comes to mind right?

Ah, yes, Well this is because as humans we have a natural knack for needing compassion and our unconscious takes control making us unaware of the search. This is why we feel a sense of fulfillment when we find the one or have company at our homes.

We are truly creatures of need, social need. If your like me and have realized that this is one of the main things that keep us from going "crazy" because we have people around us to guide and talk and show affection towards us. Take our family and friends out of the equation and we are alone and we begin to feel lonely and have thoughts of self doubt and feel unwanted.
That is when we truly go "crazy" and mental illness can form.

In all reality that is why people like me who has a limited number of friends those of who live states away, have cats because I need companionship, aside from my two year old son who would rather draw on the wall then hold a conversation with his mom.

Anyway to the point, being sociable is important and a part of life not only for maintaining your health but navigating around. So when I say Who needs friends I mean every one every where because we as humans crave and live off interaction and attention its primal. Don't get me wrong friends are important but having the right ones are what counts.

So no, while friendship is important it doesn't include Mr. popularity with adoring fans. it includes compassionate relations with someone who knows you and understands you fully. Not someone interested in your high school ranking.


Think about that

Should You Be An Open Book Or Stay Hidden?

That is the real question, isn't it. The one that we fight day in and day out. A personal battle that spans the decades of human life....
