    The Value of Friendship

    They say we live and we die, which is true in some cases because some live their lives alone and any type of relationship they're
    afraid to try;
    But so sad not to have some one in your life to share the tears you
    cry.
    Someone who will be there when you need to talk.
    Someone who will carry you when the time comes and you can't walk.

    Someone who can feel your pain without having to talk with you.
    Someone who, judging by the tone of your voice knows something is wrong and what they are feeling is true.
    Someone who calls you when you're on their mind.
    Someone who, when you're having problems tells you God will work it out in time.

    Someone who loves you for just who you simply are.
    Someone who vows to be your brother or sister never to depart.
    Someone who buys you gifts and drops by for no reason at all.

    Someone who never changes, no matter who comes into their lives.
    Someone who has to approve your soon to be husband or wife.
    Someone who argues with you about things you shouldn't do.
    Someone who does it for no other reason than because they simply love you.

    Someone who you consider to be a precious diamond, in which their value can't be compared.
    Someone who, all your secrets from the past and present with them you've shared

    You may think I'm talking about a husband, a wife, a boyfriend, or a girlfriend
    But what i'm referring to is simply called a FRIEND,

    THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND

    In the best of times we have people by our side, BUT its when ur in the midst of the storm u find out who ur true friends really are. A true friend is there thru the good times and the bad! And sometimes we need the storms to blow away the chaff (trivial or worthless matter) , So we can know who are our really TRUE FRIENDS. Because TRUE FRIENDS- They are the ones that stand by ur side and ride out the storm with you, the ones helping u to hold ur head high after all the pain settles, the ones who have ur back when all is said and done!

    Yes, a friend loves you enough to tell you the truth and trusts you enough to know that when they do you won't turn on them. very insightful piece.

    You know what? I'm feeln you, that's real friendship! That type of relationship is a lot harder to take hold of these days because of people's misperceptions, insecurities, and selfish motives (among much deeper "excuses"). Keep it real.....

    Yea alot of time people tend not to be a true friend because they mistake it for something else, but adults know the real meaning of a friend, and being an adult isn't based on age. thanks For the positive feedback
