friendships are far more of a priority than relationships. relationships happen. relationships end. friendships end, but the chances are lower. you sit face to face to your friend with a cigarette and a drink in your hands, ask for help when in trouble, read your mind out loud without being afraid of any judgements, can be random and silly, no fight over having your me time. i could go on and on about friendships and never run out of good aspects of it that in fact win over relationships.
my life is my beloved friends. my friends are my legacy. my legacy is my dear memories made with them through the good and bad.
p.s. never choose a relationship over a friendship if there comes a day when you have to.
