Only a few times in your life do you find a friend that will truly be there for all of the ups and downs that life has to
offer.
We all have casual friends that we hang out with occassionally. We have acquaintances that are in our address books but we
only see them once in a while and send them a Christmas card once a year.
Then you have true friends.
They come so far and few between… these are the ones that I cherish.
A true friend is the first one at your door with food when a loved one has passed.
A true friend helps you through a divorce, shows up on moving day to lend a hand and moral support. A true friend sticks
around and helps you unpack in your new apartment when your heart is crushed and feeling no hope.
Friends send cards in the mail everyday for the first month of being single again to get you through the sad times.
A true friend constantly keeps you busy to keep your mind off divorce.
They forgive you when you have been in the wrong and lashed out at them.
Friends go and exercise with you and cheer you on… even if you aren’t doing so great at the exercising!
Friends hang out until the wee hours of the morning, talking about nothing and laughing about everything.
Friends hand you a couple of Tums and a bottle of water before bed… after a night of drinking.
Good friends sleep on the hardwood floor together because neither one wants to take the couch over the other!
Friends forgive you in the morning for drinking too much the night before!… or just laugh at you!
Friends are honest and will tell you the truth… even if it hurts.
Friends help you get dried off and dressed after a day at the beach… (funny story behind this one!)
One of the most important things in friendship is knowing you can tell them anything.
To my bestfriends… I love you!
A friend of mine that I lived down the road from and went to Deltona Middle School with was recently in a motorcycle accident. His wife is nine months pregnant and is expecting any day now. Sean will be unable to attend the birth of his baby because he is in one hospital and his wife is in another. My best friend and I are planning on going to see him in a few days. I will update his status once we see him.
