Good friends are hard to come by , genuine  people who care about you as much as you do them .... It is not always easy to be a good friend . Life has a way of whirling you up inside  of her and causing such turmoil  that you feel so caught up in your own life  you perhaps  forget those around you . Often we neglect our friends  , at least I know I do ....  But remember those people we can really call friends we aren't entitled to those people we are lucky to have them .... This is just to remind you that .....
If you want a friend , You must be a friend

              Friendship needs no words

A friend is one who knows all aboutyou
           and loves you all the same
 

I'd like to be the sort of friend that you have been to me ,
I'd like to be the help that you are always glad to be .
I'd like to mean as much to you , each minute of the day
As you have meant , old  friend of mine , to me along the way .
I'd like to do the big things and the splendid things for you ,
To brush the grey from out your skies and leave them only blue ,
I'd like to say the kind of things that I so oft have heard ,
And feel that I could rouse your soul the way that mine you stirred .
I'd like to give you back the joy that you have given me ,
Yet that were wishing you a need I hope will never be .
I'd like to make you feel as rich , as I who travel on
Undaunted in the darkest hours , with you to lean upon ,
I'm wishing at this very time that I could but repay
A portion of the gladness that you've strewn along the way .
And could I have one wish today , this only would be .....
I'd like to be the sort of  friend that you have been to me .
