Ain't it good to know you've got a friend...


This quote sounds like a pretty simple proposition, right?  Maybe… maybe not. Try to define “deserves” in that statement. Maybe: they’re trustworthy, respectful, humble, honest, curious, ethical, kind, caring, and… well, loyal. Pretty tall order, but when you look around at your real friends – the ones you’ve known well (either for a long time or less), they probably meet the bill. So, are you loyal to them? If they meet your criteria then you should be.  And when you are, you should be all the things to them that they are to you. That’s loyalty. The reason I’m thinking about this is that this past weekend I sat around a campfire with one of my oldest friends – like from 3rd grade. We were besties through high school, then went off to college and our separate ways. We’ve seen each other less than a handful of times since, but when we have, the friendship was still there: deep and evident.  It was there for all to see and feel around that campfire. And to find this in the midst of this pandemic was elating. Friends like that are priceless treasures: true-blue and loyal to the end, through thick and thin, in good times and bad. Be loyal to those who deserve it today.

Joyce Maynard (born 1953): American novelist and journalist

  1. Omg I Finally Got Helped  !! I'm so excited right now, I just have to share my testimony on this Forum.. The feeling of being loved takes away so much burden from our shoulders. I had all this but I made a big mistake when I cheated on my wife with another woman  and my wife left me for over 4 months after she found out..  I was lonely, sad and devastated. Luckily I was directed to a very powerful spell caster Dr Emu who helped me cast a spell of reconciliation on our Relationship and he brought back my wife and now she loves me far more than ever.. I'm so happy with life now. Thank you so much Dr Emu, kindly Contact  Dr Emu Today and get any kind of help you want.. Via Email emutemple@gmail.com or Call/WhatsApp +2347012841542
