A thought on friendship: friend noun 1. a person attached to another by feelings of affection or personal regard. 2. a person who gives assistance; patron; supporter: friends of the Boston Symphony. 3. a person who is on good terms with another; a person who is not hostile: Who goes there? Friend or foe? Those are kinda vague but here is what I see a friend being. Someone who is honest and true. Real friends tell the truth, even when it hurts. Someone who supports you, even when they dont agree with you. Someone who is okay with you being you, even when they are different than you. SOmeone you can count on (this can mean physicallyy, emotionally, or otherwise)when you need help. Someone who will look past your bad days. Someone who will stick up for you. Someone who will look you right in the eye and tell you to get real when you are freeking out over nothing. To me, friendship is about the big stuff. Its not about the little things. I dont remember your birthdays, I am lucky to remember your favorite color, I dont remember your kids birthdays, your pets names, your adress or even what kind or car you drive, but you can be damn sure if you told me you needed help I would come running. I will gaurd your secrets (mostly because I cant remember then) I will defend you and your family, I will do everything in my power to be an honest and true friend. I am blessed to have a few people in my life that I call true friends, that have realy helped me out lately.When you need help you realy learn who you can count on.Some friends I only see once in a blue moon, some I see all the time. You are all very special to me and hold a special place in my heart I hope that even through my neglec ( not showing for kids bdays) not calling out of the blue, not socializing, and not keeping up with the latest happenings) that you feel lik I am just as good a friend as you are to me. It has come to light lately that I have a few less real friends then I though, but thats okay. I would rather have a handfull of true friends than a bunch of fake ones. Everyone needs friends like mine, they keep me same, make me laugh, cry with me, forgive me, help me, lift me up, encourage me, and give me the honesty EVERYONE deserves! Thank you friends!
