Who are we?
We are the dead. Those soulless spirits that walk and talk in vain; working, living, dying for an unknown cause, and worth nothing at all.
Who are we?
We are you, and me, and those around us... the walking wounded.
THE RUNE OF ST. PATRICK
At Tara today in this fateful hour
I place all Heaven with its power,
And the sun with its brightness,
And the snow with its whiteness,
And fire with all the strength it hath,
And lightning with its rapid wrath,
And the winds with their swiftness along their path,
And the sea with its deepness,
And the rocks with their steepness,
And the earth with its starkness
All these I place,
By God's almighty help and grace,
Between myself and the powers of darkness.

I have noticed something quite... odd, during the last few years. It has always seemed to be that certain friendships are made from convenience, no matter how hard we try to deny it. Sometimes, friends become friends merely to use each other, much like leeches suck the blood of their hosts. Sometimes, it's a one way relationship, and at other times, it becomes a sort of symbiosis. Sadly, the superficiality of the friendship only rises up after need has disappeared.
However, the main point of this post is not to debate the finer points of friendships but rather to set a warning, an alarm if you will. Lately, I have begun to notice that especially in University and post-secondary education, there is a high population of these human leeches. In a frantic, fast-paced world, the easiest way to get something is to take it. And thus, we have evolved, or adapted, to using each other. So, my warning is not to avoid these people, but not to become one yourself. Much worth is put on friendships, and thus the higher two people fly together, the harder it is when they fall.
It's one sad thing to lose a friend you never really had, but it's much sadder to abandon someone who believed in you.
