Two years ago I ended a great friendship because I was stubborn and stupid. I shouldn't be cryin because he sold me out, but I did, like a little punk. As the month pass I push myself away from anyone willing to become my friend, to afraid to be betray. Then in August of last year I met this girl, such a amazing girl (just a friend). She renew my hopes in people and push me to speak to my ex-friend which I did. A lot had happen over the two years we haven't spoken, he's gettin marry and I wish him the best of luck. After that meeting we had I still didn't keep in contact, my stubbornness and stupidity, until last Thursday morning when I heard his mother had pass away. I was in shock, sadden. She was the greatest, very loving, kind, sweet, like any mother out there. A great women. Her viewing was at 5 that very day and that's when I saw him again. As we embrace, I told him how stupid I was and how my stubbornness keep me from talking to him, he told me it wasn't my fault that it was his, a great friend indeed. We stood there talking about the past and one story about him and his mother.

One day we call him up and told him to come out and hang with us, he was like ok let me ask my mom. As he ask his mother, she said "No Armando you're tired" he was like "no I'm not" and again she told him "No Armando you're tired" and again he was like "no I'm not?!" and for the third time she said "No Armando you're tired!!" that's when he came back on the phone and told us "Sorry guys, but my mom said I'm tired" lmao, She was the greatest and she will be miss.

The very next day, Friday, was her funeral. I would never thought that in a million years I would ever carry a casket, but he ask me if I wouldn't mind. I felt honor and I did. Walking down with the casket in hand I thought to myself this could be my mother, my father, my sibling, but it wasn't. It was his mother. The whole time not one single tear, until the very last moment when he knew he wouldn't see her again. As he touch the coffin for the last time he cried, but he was still tough as nail. Broke down for 10 second at most. I'm not gonna lie, I'd cried. Every time when I think about that moment I get watery eyes. Every moment of everyday is a life lesson, if you have time to be upset then you have time to forgive. Life is too short to get angry for the small pebbles in life. If you know you wrong a person ask for forgiveness, if you got wrong ask yourself if that person worth to forgive. Do it before it's to late, before you'll regret not doing so. A wise man once said "I rather have one good friend then a bunch of crappy friends"
