A British publication once offered a prize for the best definition of a friend. Among the thousands of answers received were the following:
“One who multiplies joys, divides grief, and whose honesty is inviolable.”
“One who understands our silence.”
“A volume of sympathy bound in cloth.”
“A watch that beats true for all time and never runs down.”
The winning definition read: “A friend is the one who comes in when the whole world has gone out.”
Someone needed to hear this tonight. Decide to be a friend, one that can be counted upon even through the most difficult of times. Be the type of person that can make room for imperfections and pray for improvements. Have the kind of love that endures and will always be loyal.
