Your true colours.

Being a friend is about understanding and acceptance. But why is it so hard for people to understand and to accept?

I've had the opportunity to see the true colour's of a couple of people in my life who I thought were the dearest of all. These people are the ones I'd go to if I needed help or advice, someone to talk to. However, I no longer feel as though I can confide in them the same way that I used to. Friends are supposed to be there for you and support you in your decisions, but they're also supposed to help you along the way.

We all need guidance, maybe not in everyday life, but in some aspects we want someone there to help us. Without the comfort of a best friend or a close friend who do you turn to? Some things you cannot tell your mother, male best friend or partner. True woman to woman friendship is valued so much to all of us, but often times when something doesn't go a certain way or someone realizes they don't have much control over the friendship; all hell breaks loose. Those people don't understand that it is a friendship and it is not meant to be controlled.

I am not partial to competition, I don't have to be a winner and I never want to make someone feel lower or less important than myself. Unfortunately, not everyone feels the way that I do and thats where problems start to arise. Power tripping females who need to be right, better, faster and stronger than the rest. You can't build a secure foundation on something like an ego, in the end that foundation will fail, along with the friendship you've built on it.
