Friendship

"A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart, and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words."

"It's the friends you can call up at 4am that matter."
- Marlene Dietrick

"The most I can do for my friend is simply to be his friend. I have no wealth to bestow on him. If he knows that I am happy in loving him, he will want no other reward. Is not friendship divine in this?"
- Henry David Thoreau

"We are all angels with only one wing...we can fly only embracing each other."

"If all my friends were to jump off a bridge, I wouldn't jump with them, I'd be at the bottom to catch them"

"A true friend is someone you can trust with all your secrets."

"Friends are like pillars on your porch. Sometimes they hold you up and sometimes they lean on you."

"A friend is someone who reaches for your hand, but touches your heart."
- Kathleen Grove

In light of some recent events I have been thinking about what friendship means to me.

Friendship is trust, integrity, kindness, caring, genorosity, blunt honesty, and fierce loyalty. Its is a precious gift though, and should be handled with care.

I'm thankful to have such awesome friends of my own. I suspect that whatever I have to go through it will be possible with them by my side, and I have no reason to doubt that they will stay by my side.
