Friends.....

Sometimes in life, you find a special friend:

someone who changes your life by being a part of it.

Someone who makes you laugh until you can't stop;

someone who makes you believe that there really is good in the world.

Someone who convinces you that there is an unlocked door

just waiting for you to open it.

This is forever friendship...

When you're down, and the world seems dark and empty,

your forever friends lifts you up in spirit and make that dark and empty world

suddenly seem bright and full.

Your forever friend gets you through

the hard times, the sad times, and the confused times.

If you turn and walk across, your forever friend follows.

If you lose your way, your forever friend holds your hand

and tells you that everything is going to be okay.

And if you find such a friend, you will feel happy and complete,

because you need not worry.

You have a forever friend for life,

and forever has no end.

I received this in my email today and wanted to share it. It is beautiful and offers hope. I never thought I could feel this was true again about friendship, but I do think I have a couple of forever friends, so I am lucky. I hope they know who they are when they read this. Friendship has to be of give and takes, it has to be something two people work at, and it has to be equal, if not then it falls apart no matter how hard you want it to work out. Thank you to my friends...you guys are wonderful...all of you!
