FRIENDSHIP

I went to the city wednesday night to meet some friends at a resturant called patsy's ....great food , but that is not why i went...i needed to see my friends and break bread with them.....some of them have visited me at home when i just got home from the hospital and i needed to reach out to see them....they traveled far to a trade show in nyc that we we doing ......i thought about these 5 friends that mean so much to me and i decide to write a creed about friendship and what it means to me....... a friend is someone who you always feel comfortable being around.....a friend is always going to be there for you through illness and health....a friend will never question your friendship or demand anything more than you are willing to give...a friend is someone when you enter their home you feel at home yourself........a friend is someone when you walk into a room he/she makes sure to smile and welcome you....a friend is someone you could call 24/7 just to say hi if need be.........a friend is someone who when asks you for advice listens to your answer.....i mean really listens to your answer...... a friend is there to make your life easier not harder ...... a friend senses when you need some time alone and respects your wish without question or guilt........ i can only hope that i have lived up to some of these things that i wrote about because all the people that i consider my friends did these things for me.....i have so many good friends..... I KNOW I SAID THIS 100 TIMES AND I WILL SAY IT AGAIN......THERE CAN BE NO GREATER GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT I CALL MY FRIENDS...I WILL SPENT THE REST OF MY LIFE MAKING SURE YOU ALL KNOW WHAT AN HONOR IT IS TO HAVE YOU IN MY LIFE........I WILL NEVER TAKE YOU FOR GRANTED..........please write to me what you think a friend should be like and i will put it all together.......if you can't figure the comments out send it to thunderbyd@aol.com....
