Friends

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.

Someone who convinces you
that there really is an unlocked door
just waiting for you to open it.

Someone who makes you believe

that there is purpose in continuing to live.

Someone who affirms for you the intrinsic

goodness of human nature.

Someone who vouches for the fleeting

nature of vicissitudes that life is all about.
