Why Best Friends Forevers are the Keys to Carrie

Last night i watched the last episode of Sex and The City, the one when Carrie moves to France because of her Russian’s boyfriend Alex.

For some reasons, she gets lonely without Alex, which is so busy preparing his museum opening. Carrie has to do most of the activities alone, without her boyfriend accompany her, and also without her three loyal besties that she left them in New York City.

With her being new in Paris, she finds some new friends that actually the fans of her book which is already published there too. Her new friends plan to make a special party for Carrie because they adore her so much.

Just before Carrie goes to the party, suddenly Alex gets nervous about his museum opening that he should attend it. He is afraid that there will be something not running well as expected. Carrie finally chooses Alex to accompany him to his event instead of attending her own party.

And when she comes to her party made by her new friends, she is already too late. There is no one there, left only her book being abandoned in the table. Seems that her new friends are very disappointed of her.

Watching that episode makes me wondering about myself, about how i am treating my friends all this time. Have i done well enough for my friends that are loyal to me ?

Friends that always be there for me whenever i need them.

Friends that always say the truth to me no matter how bad the situation is.

Friends that always give their shoulders and hug me whenever i cry.

Friends that always take care of me whenever i get ill.

Friends that always encourage me whenever i am down.

Friends that always catch me whenever i am fall.

Friends that always be on my side whenever i get hurt.

And last but not least, Friends that always forgive me whenever i hurt them.

So I start to call them one by one, the true friends that always stay for me.

Keep contact with them. Meet them or visit them when available.

Lend them my hands if they need me. Show them that i care.

Because in the end, i wanna be like Carrie who has three besties, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte, which are always waiting for her to come back to New York City.
