Family And Friends (Compatibility)

Let's face it, not many people like their family members. Is it a wonder as to why this is? Family is just a loosely based group of people, held together by biological ties and nothing else. In essence, people you HAVE to be around. I believe that means nothing. People must be proven worthy by character and not some biological collective genes. Not to say some families aren't legitimate. Sometimes they are compatible people. Most times they aren't. Spare me the "love your family" talk. It just doesn't work.

Now onto friends. Friends, on the opposite side, are people you choose to be around. There aren't any ties there of any kind. Unless you subscribe to the "family friends" type, in which that might as well be called family. Friends are just people who happen to (now this part is very important) appear compatible. Really, most friendships are sparked by coincidence, some incident which has a temporary binding until a real connection is formed. Most of the time, that real connection is never formed.

Don't believe me? Take a look at this:

How many people have you met, under the pretense of friend, who you don't talk to anymore? They could be old middle-to-high school friends, they could old co-workers, they could be whatever, I'm sure you get my point. And things fall apart and fade away. Why is that? Temporary binding until that wears off and are faded back to apathetic opinion of that person. Which brings me to "best friends" or people who have stayed in contact with each other over a number of years, regardless of distance or circumstance. People who have been partners , for years even decades, in a business run together. THAT is what real compatibility is. That is what is worthwhile.

Just think of that, next time you fall out of grace with someone, with no discernible event happening
