Reasons for friends

Current mood: drained
God has reasons for us, God has reasons for friends.
People come in our lives for various reasonsSome enter our life for only a split second,yet others stay in our lives forever. People come, people go- That's just how it isbut each one has made a difference whether we realize it or not.

Each friend has a different purpose for us. One friend is a listener, while another is an advisor. Some friends are there to party, while others are there to make us laugh and smile. Another is made for encouragement or boosting our self morale, another tells us the "truth," another friend depresses us to make us stronger, yet another friend is annoying in order to teach us patience. Some we refer to as "best" friends, some acquaintenances, and the rest are simply, strangers.
I value quality any day than quantity. What's the value of a friendship if he or she can't make you laugh or share any goofy moments together? What's the value of a friendship if you can't tell her or him that you love them?

Food for thought:
-What kinds of characteristics do you value in friendship?
-What kind of friend do you want to be?, versus what kind of friend you really are?
-Who are your true friends? In other words, if you were stranded on the freeway in timbucktoo, who would drive hundreds of miles just to save you?
-Who can you turn to in your time of need (other than God and family)?
-How often do you communicate with your true friends?

How about this (perhaps controversial) one: If you were to die today, who would be at your funeral?, and why would they be there? Remorse, sadness, guilt? Think about it, if you had an enemy that attended your funeral, how would that make you feel, seeing all the mourning people from the outside looking in?

I think if you can HONESTLY admit you have at least five friends that will be there till "death do us part" then life becomes worthwhile and more meaningful. Do not take friendship for granted. The friends we choose depicts who we are for it is they that remind us who we've become.

Friends are like wine, it only gets better after a certain length of time since creation.

Take care & Best of Luck.... may the Force be w/ you.

Peace ya'll...
