Protective feeling

It was an unfortunate comment. Hopefully we let it go.

 

I've always been protective of my friends. In highschool people were afraid to talk to one of my friends because she was always getting her feelings hurt and telling me about it. I tried to teach her how to get over it....when that didn't work I just asked people to leave her alone unless they were going to be sunshine and rainbows to her. ahaha

 

Watch out Cate! Someone might hit on you if you leave the house today! Better close the blinds, too!

 

I don't look at any of my friends and really notice them aging much physically, we all pretty much look the same for the most part, just a little more mature in looks. Heck, I think some of us look better now than we did in our younger years! Ahem *coughs*

However, what does it for me is how all of us are married and mothers (or fathers!) now, how we're all either in our 30's, mid 30's, or approaching our 30's, how it seems like just the other day we were a bunch of kids dreaming of our futures, how far off it all seemed. Now here we are.

And now I see my kids growing up before my eyes and I think, wow, where has the time gone? Then I'm shot with a jolt of panic, realizing that time is quickly passing by. Which is why I try to enjoy each day. Not always easy to do, but...

 

i remember the shock of realizing that my freind's hair was turning grey. she's only 10 days older than me. talk about premature greying. it freaked me out.

 

im pretty damn protective of my friends.. and loud.. so if someone fucks with me or them im usually the one to stand up against the asshole. but i cherish my true friends.. who doesnt? its hard to find quality people in this world.
