Running Friends

Ok, I have to explain this. I was walking to class, at maybe 9:15 this morning. A girl runs past me, and another classmate trying to get back to class. She recognizes the other girl as her friend, and proceeds to speak, as she's running. Then she asks her friend for a pencil.(she's running because she was actually taking a test in class, told the teacher she had to go to the bathroom, but really ran to her room and back). Ok, her friend says yeah she has a pencil, and takes off running to help the girl keep her pace and give her the pencil at the same time. So, this was really funny to me, and I promise there's a point to this story lol. Everyone needs a friend like that, one who will run with you. She didnt know what the girl was running for, she just took off running cause her friend needed something from her. I mean, something as small as a pencil might not be a big deal to someone else, but to me, the whole interaction was a learning experience. It was funny, and it was enlightening. If you dont have a friend who is willing to run with you, for you, or you wouldnt do the same. Maybe you should think about that relationship. And do some evaluating. Can you really call that person a friend? Now I'm not saying when you're with your friend take off running or ask would you run for me, or with me. I'm saying a friend should be willing to do that without you asking. Something to think about.
