Good Friends

     It is so important to have good friends in your life.  I am blessed with many friends but only a handful are "good" friends.  Trust me, there is a huge difference between the two.

     A friend is someone that you enjoy being around, someone that you enjoy talking with and someone that you care for.  A friend will flatter you and try not to step on your toes.  A friend will hang around when life is good and make themselves scares when it's not.  A friend will disagree when others are talking about you behind your back but they will remain silent.  A friend will feel bad for you when you are sick.  A friend will tell you all of the things they think you need to hear when you are devastated.  A friend will miss you at the girls weekend when you don't get to come because finances are tight.

     A "good" friend tells you the truth even if it is not what you wanted to hear.  A "good" friend sticks by your side in the good and bad times.  A "good" friend knows when you are not yourself and calls you on it.  A "good" friend stands up for you when others are talking bad about you.  A "good" friend brings you a meal when you are sick.  A "good" friend sits in silence with you when you are devastated.  A "good" friend pays for the girls weekend when you are broke.

     What kind of friend are you?
