Friends

Have you ever thought about just how empty a day is without a friend to share it with?

Recently, I have seen friendship change someone, who was living in a cocoon, into a beautiful butterfly. It was amazing to watch the transformation.

I never realized just how big a role our friends play in our lives.
They love us unconditionally. They support us through the hard times. They encourage us when we are down. They tell us the truth when we are deceiving ourselves. They laugh at our silly jokes. They let us cry on their shoulders. They come over if we call and say we need them. They make us chicken soup when we are sick. They tell us when our guy is a jerk. And sometimes they tell us when we are being a jerk.

We should always remember to treasure our friends and to never take them for granted because without them... well........ I hate to think.
