Friendship isn't always easily described. The Eskimos, they say, have a hundred different words for snow. Unfortunately, the English language isn't quite as innovative, though it has vast opportunities to differentiate meaning. Certainly, Love is one of those opportunities. And so, too, is Friendship.
Instead of different words, however, we're stuck with simple adjectives. Close friend. Best friend. Childhood friend. Intimate friend. Trusted friend. Beloved friend. But whether you use adjectives or different words, few could deny the nearly infinite meaning in such a simple word.
Friends are special people. We can't pick our family, and we're sorely limited in the number of them at any rate. Society and mores (and often our own conscience) dictate we select a single mate. But our friends can be as diverse and infinite as the adjectives we choose. Our friends, in a very real sense, reflect the choices we make in life.
Here's a gr8 poem dedicated to our friendship:::
"always there for you"
When you are sad,
and you feel you can't go on.
Tears well in your eyes
and the pain is so strong.
So far from your friends,
and you're all on your own.
No-one to run to,
So very alone.When all seems so useless,
and you can't take anymore.
As you put on your coat,
and head for the door.
Remember.......I was there once,
lost, all alone
You can cry in my ear,
Just pick up the phone.
When you are lonely and feeling so blue
Someone is thinking ...thinking of you !!!:-)
