What is a Friend?

Have you ever thought about what a friend is? I think about it alot. I think I'm a good friend, but sometimes I feel like I've let my friends down. But have I really? Probably not. This is my idea of what a friend is so you can take it for what it's worth. A friend is a person who you can talk to and tell anything, and they won't judge you. They will listen and say they know how you feel, or don't know how you feel but can understand how you're feeling. A friend will lend you their shoulder to cry on when you need to cry and will never complain that you're making it wet. A friend is beside you through the bad times as well as the good times. They celebrate with you and morn with you. They lift you up when you're down, and fly with you when you're up! They may forget a birthday or anniversary, but not usually. They're interested in the things you do and who you are.

What do you think a friend is?

Just hopped over from Aunt Kathy's blog to say HI! You just can't visit too many knitting blogs.
I love that poncho...it's so pretty and the color is awesome.
Hope you don't mind me coming back to visit you. I love to see what everyone is doing.
HUGS!

A friend is someone who accepts you for who you are not for who they want you to be..An ear, shoulder to cry on and someone to laugh with and at you. Came over from Aunt Kathy's blog, decoded I should check out some of the other commentors. Have a great Day !!!!!!
