Friendship

    We look to friends for honesty in a world of half-truths and lies, for support when our lives creak under the weight of life’s pressures, for encouragement when we are shooting for the stars and only hitting the moon. Friends listen when we need to talk, comfort us in our tears, and celebrate with us in our moments of joy. Friendship is the journey of discovering the miracle of another’s being. When we begin a friendship, we light a single candle in the dark room of mistrust and scepticism, and we are delighted by the hope it gives us. As the friendship grows, we light more candles. The trail of light which is friendship knows no end.
