An Ode To A True Friend

posted 28th April, 2011 under The Bottom Drawer.

 

A true friend doesn’t just take from you; she gives to you.

A true friend doesn’t break your heart; she helps mend it. 

A true friend doesn’t cause your tears; she wipes them.

A true friend doesn’t misunderstand; she makes sure too understand.

A true friend doesn’t patronize you; she guides you.

A true friend doesn’t belittle you; she builds you up.

A true friend doesn’t laugh at you; she laughs with you.

A true friend doesn’t speak about you; she speaks to you.

A true friend doesn’t give you the cold shoulder; she gives you a warm embrace.

A true friend doesn’t back down; she’s got your back. .

A true friend isn’t inconvenienced; inconvenience and you are antonyms.

A true friend doesn’t neglect you; she’s with you.

And even when the day comes for her to say “I Do”;

No need to worry…

A true friend won’t ever let a man take her away from you.

 

Femmefile readers, dedicate this one to your dear friends…

    Now theres evidence to suggest that a good friendship does the same thing…..Results of a nine year study of 7 000 people conducted by Harvard researchersis showing that people who have less-than-wonderful health habits but a loving support system actually live significantly longer than people with good health habits living largely isolated lives. But it does show how important human relationships are…..A true friend is the most precious of all possessions and the one we take the least thought about acquiring La Rochefoucauld . Someone you can always count on to be there for you?….Be Vulnerable….We need good friends with whom we can be real.
