Versus: Snickers vs Twix

A friend of mine told me this analogy at camp this summer and I probably won't ever forget it because it's so true!

Imagine your favorite chocolate candy. Most people will name snickers or a recces as their favorite. What about a twix? When I think about a twix I think-- I haven't had one in awhile, it'd be nice to have one. In our lives we have people that are our favorite people to go to. They are the first person we call, they are the first person we want to hang out with-- they are essentially our snickers. We enjoy having them around all the time. Then we have those people in our lives that we love but we don't necessarily have to be around them all the time. We call them to hang out every once in a blue moon, we don't have to see them all the time-- they are essentially our twix. They are like a a breath of fresh air.

When I was told about this analogy I got to thinking about my friendships and where I stand. I'm pretty sure I am a twix in a lot of them and I am OK with that, but for some people who don't know that they are it can be hard on them when their snickers friend doesn't have time for them. Basically, the moral of this story.... figure out where you stand in your friendships, because it'll save you a ton of heartache and time!
