what is a friend?
today, while i was working in mcdonalds, i spoke to one boy who was on the same break as me. we went into conversation, and:
he said to me: "i have no friend"
i said: "what do you mean? no friend here? or at school?"
he said: "i have no friend, anywhere, school, home, and here"
i said: "what do you mean by no friend?"
he said: "i don't have any friend that i could hang out with, all of the people, i just see them on the street, say hi and bye, i don't go out etc2"
hearing that, i truly2 feel sad... i want to be a friend to him, that i don't want to say "here i want to be your friend". i truly2 want him to find a friend that he could relate to... that he could share his pain and hapiness with... that would spend time with him... but at that time i really2 feel helpless... i really2 don't know what to say... because i know that if i say "here i am, i want to be your friend". i know that i have to spend time with him, and go out with him and stuff... but the thing is... he is a MALE... and i don't and WON'T want to go to friendship with anyone just out of pity... because it's ... really2 sad for the other party... and i just saw him today and talked to him today... and all those other excuses....
truly.. i want to pray to God... that He would show me the way to help him find another MALE friend that would want to accept him... and be his best friend...
you know what, it's sad... there's so many lonely people in this world... but why is it that none of them ever try be friend with each other? .... i think it's because their loneliness has taken over them so much that they don't even have a single spark of self confidence left in them...
its so sad, reallly2 sad... and if i am this sad, think about how God would feel... He see this person every single second, He knows what he need, He knows the solution to all his pain, but yet again, God can't tell him or force him or feed him the answer, he has to find out about it himself... even human parents would feel DEVASTATED how about God... and He has to bear all the pain of all humans...
you know... it's weird... that i learned about this painful thing today.. about a person who in his life has NO friend and want one but do not get any.... and on the same day, i learned about another person who has A LOT of friends... but do not appreciate any of them....
who has a lot of friends who cares and loves her so much... but she don't think that whatever act of love that they had done for her is actually an act of love... she always wants more from her friends...
it's tragic isn't it...and it's also a solid proof that humans are social beeing hehehe... but i guess it's another solid proof of who we are without God... always seeking for the temporary... always seeking for something more and more and more to fill in that empty feeling....
so what is a friend? i read in a book once "friend is a beautiful flower you saw during your life journey, you can't keep them forever, but they still make your journey beautiful"
so yeha... a friend... is not someone we should look for... it'll be there ... it'll pop up once in a while... God is the one we should long for... God is the only one we should try to have a good and long lasting relationship with... NOT anyone else... not humans... because we die and withers one day but God don't!
