The ABCs of Friendship

A friend recently sent me a Valentine's Day E-card... I find it very thought-provoking and agreeable. It's kinda like a gauge... and when I read through it... certain names or faces will appear... for either having these traits below or not. And I'm going to use this as my own gauge too... so that my friends won't be shortchanged. I guess these are the expectations that I was mentioning before. Although it seems overwhelming with 26 things to do... but I realise that when you're true to a friend... it comes naturally. I hope that these ABCs are as encouraging to me as it is going to be for you.

Take care my dear friends... know that you're always in my thoughts and prayers. Love & misses you!!

A - Accepts you as you are
B - Believes in you
C - Calls you just to say "Hi"
D - Doesn't give up on you
E - Envisions the whole world of you (even the unfinished part)
F - Forgives your mistakes
G - Gives unconditionally
H - Helps you
I - Invites you over
J - Just be with you
