A True Friend by Shruti R. Patel

A True Friend A-Z           ~ by Shruti R. Patel

“Friends are the flowers in the garden of life.”

Who’s a true friend? A “true friend” is the one who…

Admires you the way you are, no matter how you look or act,

Believes in you truly, without judging you,

Cares for you dearly and looks out for you, having respect for you,

Discusses your emotions and diminishes your fears,

Encourages you to reach for the stars and achieve your goals in life to become successful,

Feels proud for your accomplishments, instead of feeling jealous,

Generously forgives all your mistakes with a big heart, no matter what,

Honestly tells you the truth, although it may be unpleasant,

Inspires you and intimately pushes you to go forward in life,

Just stays with you forever, even when you are grieving,

Knows everything about you, including your inner-most feelings,

Loves you unconditionally from the bottom of the heart,

Makes you feel cheerful, filling your life with joy and happiness,

Nurtures you with positive thoughts, always giving you good advices,

Openly accepts your weaknesses and ignores your flaws,

Provides solace and lends a helping hand, always supporting you in times of despair,

Quietly listens to your feelings, never getting tired of listening to you,

Readily makes sacrifices for you and raises your spirit,

Stays with you forever, standing up for you and defending you,

Tries to put your life back together, lightening up your gloomy days,

Understands you, your moods, and your troubles,

Values your thoughts, your ideas, and your opinions,

Wipes out the tears falling from your eyes, giving you hope, courage, and confidence,

X’pects nothing in return, except for your loyalty in friendship,

Yearns for you and your love,

Zeroes out your sorrows and worries, taking away your frown and bringing a smile on your face.    

So, always appreciate your friends!!!
