Life may be unpredictable which make it more scarier and demoralizing at some point because within a second, something can go wrong and that's the end but the beauty is that, within a second also everything can be great. but one thing that has remained perfectly constant for me in my life and it's also predictable is the love and support of my family and awesome friends i had, they have been the absolute best thing that have happened and still happening in my life.
For me my family and friends are everything to me and no matter where I go in life or whatever I achieve or still achieving, or whatever struggles I have faced or still facing, they are always there for me and this is something that can never be bought and not everyone have it and if you do, hold on to it and don't misuse it because it's free.
I have had the same group of friends since childhood and I am incredibly proud to say that our bond is getting stronger as each day passes even when we're not togethe, we all still communicate. We always meet physically at my family's house atleast once in a year and it's something we always look forward to, no matter where we're in the world, as long as it's possible to come. We’ve grown together, faced life ups and downs together and built a connection that goes beyond just friendship but family, they are like the sisters and brothers that i never had.
Having friends is different from having true friendship and this is rare and I am grateful every day for the people in my life since i realized the important role tehy have been playing. we don’t just share laughter and fun moments because that what people think friends are for but we stand by each other when things get tougher and we showcase tobit that together we can overcome anything in life. I would be lying if i said we haven't fought at some point in our life, we have had disagreement, we didn't spoke for aome times and that doesn't mean when one of us is going through some life challenges we won't be there, when the relationship is true, you would always reconcile and this kind of friendship is what i have and i regard it to as a priceless relationship.
When I think about the most important person in my life eince my childhood, someone that sacrificed everything for me when i had nothing, someone that took care of me when i thought there was no hope, someone that is irreplaceable with anything in this life, someone i could give my life to, someone that's the reason I'm alive, my mother is at the top of the list and i would never forget everything she has done for me. She has been my path, my direction, my life, my friend, my mentor, my guidance, my precious love, and my greatest supporter in every thing.
Even when my father left us at an early stage in my life, she made sure I never felt his absence and this was who she was and she worked hard, sacrificed a lot, and always put my needs before hers and fir this, no one could ever replace what she is to me and she taught me the true meaning of strength, resilience, and unconditional love and if not for her, i wouldn't be here talkless of being alive amd everything I am today, I owe to her.
My family is more than just parents and siblings, my family wouldn't be complete without my cousins and nephews. They bring so much happiness and joy into my life and also they bring the childish girl in me when ever they are around me and they also remind me of the joy of being young when I'm not bothered about what people think about me , they remind me of seeing life through innocent eyes and this is a blessing i cannot deny that my cousins and nephews bring to me.
Every time I spend time with them, I feel like I’m reliving my childhood and i miss ghose days and i also tell them jokes and my childhood story of everything we did... Their laughter is contagious and sometimes i barely match their energy because their energy is endless and more energetic than me and i teach them what i can in the best possible way.
As I grew older, I realize more and more how important these relationships are especially the one from friends and family and this is more than the little Success, money, and material thingsbwe have now because they can come and go, but the people who truly care about you stay and they are always making you have happiness and joy some people can't comprehend and they are always there to celebrate your achievements in times you don't expect and also to comfort you in your struggles and remind you of who you are when you forget and think everything is over and thanks to them, i am who i am because of them and I wouldn’t be where I am today without them.
Sometimes we easily get caught uo in life, i know we have work to do, we have life that doesn't involve family, we have vacations to go, we have parties to attend, we have lovers to go out on date with, we have movies to watch, we have coffee date to go but don't forget you had family and friends that where there before these life came and please don't forget to appreciate the people who mean the most to us.
Always cherish them, surprise them, take them out, love them, make a surprise phone call today, update them about your life, buy gift for them because at the end of everything, it's only them you have and friends and family are absolutely everything.
Thanks for reading ✨☺️❤️
