A really close friend of mine felt sick at work on Thursday, so sick she was admitted to hospital. On Friday they thankfully transferred her to a hospital closer to home.
On Saturday I took her cupcakes and while we sat eating them.......her dressed in her pj's sitting in a hospital bed and me.....well just me I realised that there comes a time when we all fall a part a little. When the stress of living our lives becomes to much and we crack, sometimes we are able to use some of life's polyfiller to fix us up again but other times the cracks are so deep that only a friend and cupcakes can close up the hole.....
Being a friend is a honour and a privilege and the responsibility of being a friend should not be taken lightly. There are times when your advice will be put into action, when your words will have impact and when your shoulder will be needed so take care with the advice you give, count your words and ensure that you always have a shoulder.
Friendship is the glue that holds us together because it is with our friends that we are truly ourselves, we can laugh, we can cry, we can tell "naughty" jokes, we can be honest and truthful about what makes us happy, what makes us sad and what our fears are.
Be the kind of friend that you would be friends with.............
