How did we get here?

"How did we get here?"

I realized that I was asking myself that question a lot towards the end of 2008 in reference to former friends or associates. In 2009 I'm going to turn over a new leaf in regards to how I handle friendships. Normally if someone does something wrong I think to myself "does this person have characteristics that would make me want to keep them in my life in spite of whatever situation has just occurred....or can they be let go?" I don't know any murderers (as far as I know....I wouldn't put it past some of these nigga's though!)....so I think I'm gonna start giving people more chances. I know that if I messed up I would want another chance to right my wrongs. One of my best friends gave me a second chance and if he hadn't I don't know what my life would be like now, SERIOUSLY! I know what its like to have a friend taken from you, so I don't think I'll be letting any more go unless its really not up to me. We meet people for a reason and I think we should take the time to figure out exactly what that reason is.
