Simply Put, "I shouldn’t have to beg."

First off, Happy Friday...seriously all mah homies (and future self who will hopefully read this again on a Friday lol). We made it through another work week and that is cause for celebration!! Tonight I'm going to my dad's Wind Ensemble concert at the Lafayette Hotel with Gabe and a few others to enjoy some classic music and sip on a few cocktails :) Seems like an appropriate way to spend a Friday night, am I right?! I'm excited to relax with friends and soak up some old school vibes.

This week was good over all, but something pretty lame happened. I honestly don't want to get into it too much because I do know that this is an open blog that some people maybe glance at from time to time and I refuse to ever put anyone on blast, or cause harm or hurtful messages to them. However, I created this blog way back when, partially so that I could document stepping stones in my life to reflect on someday and hopefully learn from. Kind of like how musicians write songs to get them through experiences and get if off their chests.

I don't really know how to talk about it without getting emotional and going in detail, and I can't seem to find any of my own words that are fitting. So I turned to a blogger website that I thoroughly enjoy reading posts on called Hello Giggles to find some comfort and advice. This site is so great to find posts on really anything and everything you can imagine (primarily for the average woman, but guys too)! I stumbled upon this post and it encouraged my heart as I read it, knowing that other besides myself and a few of my close friends have had people come and go in their lives this way too.

Cutting people out of your lives, especially a person who you once called one of your dearest friends, is drastic. While it is a sucky situation and I don't wish anyone to go through a friendship ending this way, it's real and it happens. But anyways, if you've dealt with a friendship breakup or even if you haven't, I feel like this girl's post sums up really well what it feels like. Soooo, without further ado, if you want to read the blog here it is:

Now, go hug your friend or your pet (same thang haha) and tell them you love them, because life is too short to hold grudges and cut people out. And if they do, "There are plenty of other people out there who would do anything to hold your hand on that big, giant ocean."
