The A to Z of Friendship!

So, what is a friend? He/she is somebody who:

A - accepts you as you are,
B - believes in you,
C - calls you just to say "Hi"
D - doesn't give up on you,
E - envisions the whole of you, including the parts-in-progress,
F - forgives your every mistake,
G - gives unconditionally for you,
H - helps you whenever you need it,
I - inspires you to be the best that you can be,
J - just happy to be with you,
K - keeps you close at heart, anytime, anywhere,
L - loves you for who you are,
M - makes a difference in your life,
N - never judges, no matter what you do,
O - offers support when you're feeling tired,
P - picks you up when you fall,
Q - quiets your fears if they arise,
R - raises your spirits when you're feeling down,
S - says nice things about you, yet
T - tells you the truth when you need to hear it,
U - understands you,
V - values you,
W - walks beside you in life,
X - explains things to you if you don't understand,
Y - yells at you when you won't listen, and
Z - zaps you back to reality!

It'd be cool to have friends like that, eh? Not so fast - in a deceitful world like this, driven by materialism, you'd be lucky to get someone to know you and like you well. Sometimes, you're already lucky that you're not betrayed outright.

There's only one way to make true friends - you gotta be one first. Love another as if he/she was already your best, true friend. If no response in kind was given, you are still blessed, for you can love a friend who doesn't loves you back in the same way. Being loved is bliss, but that of loving another is incomparable.
