It's funny, but up until recently I didn't realize how much I try and push the people I care about most away. The more I care about someone, the less I tend to tell them. I guess I've always been afraid about what they would end up thinking about me. But I'm starting to see that a friendship isn't really a friendship if personal details aren't shared (the good, and the bad). While I'm not advocating sharing the most intimate details of your life with someone that you have only known for a month, I do think that you should be able to trust a friend that you have known for years. And, starting with my study abroad experience, I've learned slowly but surely to learn to trust the people closest to me. Here's to learning something new about myself every day.
