When Does a Friend Become Your Ride or Die?
We’ve all seen Thelma and Louise (and if you haven’t, you must. Immediately). We know what Ride or Die means, but what I’ve been wondering is — when does someone rise from a friend to the elite status of Ride or Die? Is there a moment when we decide to go there, or does it just happen? Was it fated?
It seems that when the shit hits the fan, when everything comes crumbling down; it’s the ones who step up for you that are your Ride or Die(s). How it happens, or why it happens is a bit of a mystery — it depends on so many factors. How are they doing? Do they have the strength to offer you support? Is it a timing thing? Is it that you are both in the same situation? Or is it magic…being someone’s light in dark times? Life may throw disasters our way, but if we are lucky, there is a net of the sisterhood, the brotherhood, the hearts that show up for us when we need it most.
Maybe there is no formula, but we know it when we see it. That moment when we find strength in shared vulnerability. It cuts through the noise; the bullshit and we sit in deep truth together. It’s a gift every time. It’s also something that requires the right balance of give and take. Of being there unconditionally, through the good, the bad and the ugly.
