True Friendship is discovering that love is unconditional and stronger than time and distance. It's knowing when you stretch out your hand, theirs will be there to grasp it.

SIMPLE  VS. REAL

        A simple friend has never seen you cry.
      A real friend has shoulders soggy from your tears.

      A simple friend doesn't know your parents' first names. A real friend has their phone numbers in his address book.

      A simple friend brings a bottle of wine to your party.
      A real friend comes early to help you cook and stays late to help you clean.

      A simple friend hates it when you call after he has gone to bed. A real friend asks you why you took so long to call.

      A simple friend seeks to talk with you about your problems. A real friend seeks to help you with your problems.

      A simple friend wonders about your romantic history.    A real friend could blackmail you with it.

      A simple friend, when visiting, acts like a guest.
      A real friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself.

      A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument. A real friend knows that it's not a friendship until after you've had a fight.

      A simple friend expects you to always be there for them. A real friend expects to always be there for you!

      A ball is a circle, No beginning, no end. It keeps us together, Like our Circle of Friends, But the treasure inside for you to see is the treasure of friendship you've granted to me.
