Friends are the richest blessings we can have. When we accept a new friend into our lives, we must take them as they are...warts and wonders. Our friends must be given the freedom to come and go in our lives without possessiveness. Yet, when we feel a great need to share a thought, feeling, or time with a friend we should let them know...especially to let them know we care for and love them. Some friends are like leaves on a tree, and the time comes for them to fall away from our lives and move on to become friends with others. We each leave a part of ourselves with the other. Other friends are like rocks, here to stay with us through thick and thin...all the days of our lives. Friendships, long or short term, should be cherished and tended as the most valuable gift we have in life.

I also believe that 'true friends' love each other in spite of their 'virtues'.
