Such a special bond, between people, friendship is like a plant in our garden. It needs the sunny rays of a bright and sincere smile. It is there to be watered by shared tears, when life becomes painful and heartbreaking. And like the old lilac bushes, it becomes stout and strong after years of enjoyment. Time does not necessarily determine the strength of these unions. New friends and old friends share our lives, each to their own involvement. Like a garden, these relationships need to be tended. Letters, phone calls, emails, visits, thoughts, and prayers, all are part and parcel of the nuturing needed. To have a friend, it is said you need to be a friend. And this cannot be planned or expected, most just happen.
