Friends-wisdom from me

They come in all sizes, shapes and temperaments.
each has a different past...A different future
but somehow we all come together, open our lives and share a bit of ourselves.

If you're lucky enough , you stumble across 1 or 2 that are extra special. These are the life long friends...The soul sisters...They make your heart smile.

they are a blessing!...A gift...

but there are rules.
they differ from friendship to friendship, but the basic rules are the following...

1. You must like yourself- you cant expect someone to find you special if you don't think so.

2. Be a good secret keeper- a must!!! If you blab everything then you miss the special times that friends tell you everything they are going thru.

3. Be a good listener and a stable shoulder- friends vent to friends and sometimes a friend just needs to bounce ideas or feelings off of a friend. They also will eventually need a shoulder to lean on...HEAVILY!

4. Make sure that you allow them plenty of alone time. Especially when they have a partner..Just remember that clingy people grow tiresome.

5. COMPROMISE-self explanatory...LOL

6. Above all else REMEMBER!!! Your have to be a friend....to have a friend
