Heart Friendship

Friendship is different
from all other relationships.
Unlike acquaintanceship, it is based on love.
Unlike lovers and married couples,
it is free from jealousy. Unlike children and parents,
it knows neither criticism nor resentment.
Friendship has no status in law.
Business partnerships are based on a contract.
So is marriage. Parents are bound by the law,
as are children. But friendship is freely
entered into, freely given, freely exercised.
Friends never cheat each other,
or take advantage, or lie.
Friends do not spy on one another,
yet they have no secrets. Friends glory
in each other’s successes and are downcast
by the failures. Friends minister to each other,
nurse each other. Friends give to each other,
worry about each other, stand always ready
to help. Perfect friendship is rarely achieved,
but at its height, is an ecstasy.

I value you as a friend.
