I just went into the bathroom and my little brother left pee all over the seat. I didn’t get angry. I didn’t even think about getting angry.
That’s how at peace I am. That’s how happy I am.
Recently I was involved with an exhausting, difficult, and hurtful experience. But this has come to prove great sacrifice. And even though it really hurts me to admit that, more than you can understand, I'm glad. Because this lesson of friendship is something i have been needing to learn...
Friendship is one of the most beautiful things we have to offer people. When we become close with someone, we give them something they are searching for; always. We give them love, we give them a trusty ear to listen, soft words to heal, laughter to enjoy, and a touch that warms.
Something i have come to believe, through friendship, is that we are all yearning for the touch of our Father. That one true touch, that will NEVER be anything but. We used to have it frequently, by his side every moment possible. But now that we are here, its not so easy. WE must be there for each other now. We must be able to provide and offer a glimmer of that friendship that seals peace into hearts. And I am so grateful, because I have a whole slue of friends I know I can call upon at any moment, that will help me to feel His touch.
I am thankful for hardships, they teach me to see that which I have become blind too. They remind me just how blessed I am. And now, because I have remembered, I must do everything I can to ensure that my loved ones, know I love them. I am here for them. And that they can trust in me.
I promise now, to keep you in my heart and in my prayers. To strive to become a better person every day, for you. I promise that my words and actions will be in sync, and that I will strive to become a safe harbour for you. You all deserve nothing less.
And if it be that we are not friends yet,know that my only hope is that we can be. No matter what has happened, or what you think may happen, I want you to know I am here for you. I want to be.Like I said, you all deserve nothing less. Life is hard enough with our turmoils, and struggles, and heartbreaks. We don’t need to cross these waters alone.
A true friend is honest; I promise to be honest.
A true friend accepts ALL of you, mistakes, habits, etc; I promise to love all of you.
A true friend remembers you; I promise never to forget you.
A true friend tries their hardest to find answers for you; I promise I will never give up.
A true friend offers security; I promise to always be here for you.
A true friend offers peace through laughter; I promise to help you laugh, really laugh.
A true friend trusts in you; I promise to never doubt you.
A true friend treasures you; I promise to let you know that I do.
A true friend believes in you; I promise to always have faith in you.
A true friend loves you, no matter what; I promise my love will be everlasting.
Fights, time, people, choices, miles, or death may come between us. But it can not stop us.
A friend is forever and for always.
