On Friendship

HERE ARE SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS AND IMAGES ABOUT ANYTHING THAT I FOUND INTERESTING. HOPEFULLY, THERE WILL BE A FEW THINGS WORTH READING THAT HAVE BEEN ACCIDENTALLY LEFT AMONG THESE MENTAL SCRIBBLES. THERE MIGHT EVEN BE FOUND A FEW LAUGHS AMONG THESE THOUGHTS THAT HAVE BEEN ACCUMULATED DURING A LIFE THAT WAS ALWAYS FASCINATED WITH THE SECRETS OF EXISTENCE. SO GO AHEAD AND LAUGH YOUR ASS OFF. I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING MORE IMPORTANT OR WORTHWHILE TO LEAVE BEHIND. ANYONE WHO REALLY KNOWS ME KNOWS I'VE ALWAYS TRIED TO LIVE UP TO THE WORDS: "FUCK 'EM IF THEY CAN'T TAKE A JOKE."

On Friendship

I ran across this wonderful quote about the nature of friendship while reading the papers today. I'm sure that the author of this little nugget of truth will surprise you. Any guesses?

"Friendship is the most difficult of all relationships. You can't pick your friends. They just happen after you meet people. In most situations we tend to put our best foot forward, so that people we meet will like us. But in true friendship, you don't do anything to make your friends like you. And they don't do anything to make you like them, at least initially."
