This journey of life was never to be a lonely experience. I keep find it amazing that in a world population fast approaching 7 billion finding a friend is an issue. As I sat sharing with a friend who just experienced a painful disheartening breakup, I constantly kept asking myself what has humanity defined a friend as. With this in mind I began to realise that unless you define a friend you wont know your friends. Who then is a friend? F: Fellowship - a friend is a fellow on the same ship one may be travelling on. A friend is someone who decides to join you as you sail through life. Job had friends who sat with him through his travail; whether right or wrong they were there and Job was not lonely. R: Relate - a friend is one whom you can relate with. The main reason for divorce is now a drifting apart, which is caused by not relating. I: Inspiring - a friend is one who inspires you to live life to the max. A friend encourages you to see above the the dark clouds of challenges in life....
Daily we need to rise, conquer and be all that we can be.
