You're my best friend.
Hello friends, it's quite another pretty time gathering information that clung around varieties of beautiful songs from a good number of scintillating artists globally. I trust everyone is doing fine.
Today, I wish to throw some light over this pretty song by Don Williams, titled: You're my best friend, a hit track that was released in 1975, although officially written by Wayland Holyfield. Really, I have loved the early days of musical expressions from the majority of artists given the inspiration that could be sculpted from their lyrical verse when compared to the trash of non-inspiring jams from our contemporary artists.
One of the things I loved about Don Williams is his magical cracking voice of bass whenever he is on stage. Most times, I used to mistake his voice with that of Jim Reeves given their cognate trend of stage exhibition. Sincerely, music isn't all about the beat from the theater ground rather inspiration from the lyrics is what moves me most.
Nonetheless, in this symphonic expression by Don Williams; you're my best friend, we will understand that it's absolutely a love driven song which anyone can minister to his/her friend based on their level of relationship. On the other hand, It's difficult to scout for genuine friends everywhere in the world, which validates the saying that a friend in need is a friend indeed. However, finding solace in friendship has been the ultimate goal of everyone that is considering who should or should not be your friend given the charlatan number of folks globally who may turn to stab your back in the guise of a relationship.
Most friendships aren't genuinely based on love and real affection rather on one's level of financial capacity and economic status thereby making it difficult to bring true love to the table of relationship. On the other hand, many people have posed this question of who to choose as best friend. I think it's not a big deal as this could simply be that person you can confide in, that person that can defy all odds to see to your peace and happiness. However, we will concede to the fact that these traits aren't present in every person we call friend as some may find it in their wife, husband, colleague, teacher etc.
Consequently, it's needful we find someone to confide in irrespective of the trend in the world where it's nearly impossible to find real love and affection from people. Emphatically, we must also show ourselves to be friendly to others if we must gain their affection and love because life is based on the principle that you must receive what you gave, meaning if I need a good friend, I must also be good to them. Friendship is sweet only when one is able to find that good friend who will condescend irrespective of our human and individual differences to manage each other's frailties and excesses.
Given the lack of trust in the world, we must be careful when choosing our friends as this demands a reasonable height of meticulousness because many people have lost their lives because of this underscore (friendship) some others have also lost their jobs, properties etc all in the name of friendship. However, the funniest part of this is that these are people we loved and trusted most which makes it imperative to choose your friends carefully and wisely and also be prepared to manage any outcome of it.
Finally, my late Dad once told us the story of a man who called his children and asked them the number of times something would happen to them before they could learn? Nonetheless, the first child answered twice, the second child said once but the last child of the man said he wouldn't let anything happen to him before he could learn, rather he would learn from the things that had already happened to others and their father approved the answer of his last child. In essence, this doesn't mean we should start avoiding people or being skeptical of them, rather we must choose wisely so we can beat our chest one day to say that this person is my best friend, which is a status quo in relationships which Don Williams underscored in this track. Hope you enjoyed listening and also reading, thank you for going through.
While reading your post I asked myself: "Did I choose my friends and best friends?"
Vaguely the word "no" floated in the back of my mind.
Needed to think things through for a bit before starting to write this response/comment.
Though I am not 100% sure - I rarely am 100% sure about anything - I think what my mind was telling me, is true. I never choose my close friends. It just happens to be. These are the peeps that I can be 100% myself. I don't have to pretend. Don't have to play some role. If I feel bad, I can show. I don't have to hide or something. I am not sure if I would be comfortable if I started to choose peeps to be my close friends or best friend(s).
Wow! you're so dramatic. Well I think it's good we choose our friends or possibly our best friends since we also have our best wears, food, books, etc. However your choice of peeps is also fine since they're all humans with lapses and frailties that's cool, if anyone of them fails today, you go for another one smiles. Nice checking up, I'm grateful.
hahahaha really? Am I dramatic? Ok, cool, not mucho peeps tell me that 😉🎶
That's fine, everyone mustn't vent their personal problems here always by responding so mean like a deity. At least, a little touch and sense of humor is okay smiles.
Yay! 🤗
