Phone calls, prayers and words of encouragement from my true friends here at HDB went a long way towards my recovery and have made me laugh once or twice in spite of my getting pretty depressed at times.
Although I've only shaken the hand of a few of you, I consider all of you true friends.
I wanted to come up with some flowery words to define friendship and impress you all with my literary acumen, but try as I might, I couldn't come up with anything better than this:
TO MY TRUE FRIENDS, I PLEDGE"
1. When you are sad -- I will jump on the person who made you sad
like a spider monkey jacked up on Mountain Dew.
2. When you are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.
3. When you smile -- I will know you are plotting something that I must be involved in.
4. When you are scared -- I will rag on you about it every chance I get.
5. When you are worried -- I will tell you horrible stories about how much Worse it could be until you quit whining.
6. When you are confused -- I will use little words.
7. When you are sick -- Stay away from me until you are well again. I don't want whatever the hell you have.
8. When you fall -- I will point and laugh at your clumsy ass...and then help you up.
Friendship is like peeing your pants, everyone can see it,
But only you can feel the true warmth..
A good friend will come bail you out at 3 AM, but a true friend will be sharing the cell.
