A FOREVER FRIEND


Sometimes in life, you find a special friend; 
Someone who changes your life just by being part of 
it. 



Someone who makes you laugh until you can't stop; 
Someone who makes you believe that there really is 
good in the world.



When you're down, and the world seems dark and empty, Your forever friend lifts you up in spirit, and makes that dark and empty world suddenly bright and full. 



Your forever friend gets you through the hard times, 
the sad times, and the confused times. If you turn 
and walk away,  your forever friend follows.



If you lose your way, your forever friend guides you 
and cheers you on. Your forever friend holds your 
hand and tells you that everything is going to be 
okay."



"And if you find such a friend, you feel happy and 
complete, because you need not worry, You have a 
forever friend for life, and forever has no end."

A true friend is...
a gift from God!.



A true friend is...
always there whenever we need a shoulder to cry on.



A true friend is...
one to share our joys as well as our sorrows.



A true friend is...
one that is not judgmental of our deeds.



A true friend is...
one who loves us even when they may not approve of 
our actions.



A true friend is...
one who does not ask if we need help, but is there 
because they already know.



A true friend is...
one who loves you for what you are, not what they 
want you to be.



A true friend is...
one who cares not the color of your skin or your 
religious beliefs.



A true friend is...
one who cares enough to tell you the truth, even when it is not easy.



A true friend is...
someone just like YOU!
