it's all about the love

sometimes you have certain friends of whom you are not sure why you have them. you can count on 10 short but talented violin-playing fingers the number of times they annoy you. and then you can count on 10 sexy red-polished toes all the great things about them. (if you're my friend, i'm kidding, i really don't do this.) but oddly enough, the more they annoy you, the more attractive they become over time until you start to see their annoyance as endearing quirks about them.

in the midst of all the counting though, there are times when you know without a doubt why they are your friends: they speak to you like no one else can. either because others don't care, they don't dare, or they're just not observant enough to see through you. it's those moments that you forget all about annoyances and just feel the love of your friends.

sometimes speaking the truth in love is the best quality a friend can ever share with you.
