Stories and Friendships...

Well, I had a productive day today. Got up, met with Trey, my personal trainer and then did some bike and ab work. After the gym, I worked on my APR, Clemson Alumni material, and SCPRSA board minutes. After I cwrite my blog, I hope to prepare for my meeting in Charlotte tomorrow.

So, my blog for today came out of a conversation I had with a friend today about relationships. As we sat at Hudson's eating so fried okra and BBQ (southern style, I might add!), she was discussing her current "guy" situation. Of course everyone seems to come to me to talk about these things and let's be honest...I'm not sure I'm the best person to give relationship advice. I have two ways I look at it: One- When you find the right one, being with them, talking to them, etc. should be easy, not forced, and Two- I'm a little cynical of guys and their honesty (based on my experiences in the past) so I tend to go into the "Guard yourself" mode when I talk to friends. But today, this one was more interesting. I actually hardly had advice...I'd never dealt with something like this before. So, this made me reflect a little....Do we all have someone or a few someone"s" out there for us and when we find them, will it really be easy or is life just made up of one confusing relationship after another and we just have to learn to accept that?

Maybe our journey in relationships is just the sheer fact that we get to share with friends, ask advice, and enjoy the stories. I add the following clip that sums it up! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ebre2Ie7S84
And, of course, my personal opinion is that there is someone out there that makes it easy....
It made me think of the following clip.
