For Your True Friend

An ordinary friend has never seen you cry. A true friend has had a wet shoulder from your tears. An ordinary friend does not know your parents' first names. A true friend probably has their phone number written down as well. An ordinary friend brings a bottle of wine to your party. A true friend shows up early to help you prepare... and stays late to help clean up. An ordinary friend gets upset when you call late. A true friend asks why you weren't able to call earlier. An ordinary friend likes to listen to your problems. A true friend likes to help you solve them. An ordinary friend behaves like a guest and waits to be served when he or she visits. A true friend goes to the fridge and serves himself. An ordinary friend thinks your friendship is over after a quarrel. A true friend knows that friendships get stronger after a quarrel. An ordinary friend always expects you to be there to help out. A true friend is always there to help you out. A true friend? Someone who sticks with you when everyone else abandons you. Have a great day from Deeeky.

Glad to hear that as I know you lead a full life and I don't know how you fit it all in.

This sort of makes me sad... true friends are a rare jewel.

That is true. They are as you say like jewels which are very hard to come by.
