For a moment, it was almost as if they were friends again.

About This Quote

For a moment, it was almost as if they were friends again.” This quote speaks to the fact that sometimes people can seem to be as close as family and then just as quickly as they appeared, they can stop talking or even start arguing. The truth is that people can be as close as family and not feel the same about each other. After all these years we still argue and disagree on things we should have already resolved. We try to pick up where we left off, but we forget how we felt and what we should have agreed upon years ago. This should not take away from the beauty of friendship, however; it should make each person strive to make their friendships stronger and more fulfilling.
