      Today I thought about what "friendship" means in modern society now that social media sites calls everyone friends even though they would more accurately be called acquaintances. And I realize now that the definition of friends is blurred so much that it now means "anyone who is part of the same community as you and has agreed to be amicable (agreeable) towards you. That is not my definition of friend. A friend is a person who you trust because they are trustworthy and you want to be trustworthy towards them. Without mutual trust, friendship cannot exist and they are strangers. But in this new world of oversharing and casual connections, everyone is a friend. And non-friends aren't considered acquaintances, they are considered fans or "followers".

          I just think there are new levels to knowing people. I have very few people that I would genuinely call my friend, but lots of people that I enjoy spending time with and am friendly with.
