Disposability. A concept typically associated with paper cups and banana peels is something that I am feeling directed towards myself at this moment. It is common knowledge that not all friendships last forever. Just look at your friends from high school. How many of them do you still speak with on a regular basis? I know for me that number is very small, and I would need a clarification on what “regular basis” would be. But to me, that would be every couple of days… which would mean I do not keep up with anyone from high school on a regular basis. Now think of your “best friends”. How many of these would you say is typical to have in a life time? Maybe a couple. And wouldn’t these friendships be more valued, thus less likely to disintegrate and diminish over time? I would think so. But apparently the answer to that question is no.
No on all counts.
What it really comes down to is the saddening fact that in the end the only person that you can really count on is yourself. Thus, it is imperative that you do what it takes to make sure that you are self sufficient enough to do so effectively…
Unfortunately.
