i recieved this as an email and thought it would be nice to post. i think its the right forum, if not, sorry.
A simple friend, when visiting, acts like a guest...A real friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself A simple friend has never seen you cry...A real friend has shoulders soggy from your tears A simple friend doesn't know your parents' first names...A real friend has their phone numbers in his address book A simple friend brings a bottle of wine to your party...A real friend comes early to help you cook and stays late to help you clean A simple friend hates it when you call after he has gone to bed...A real friend asks you why you took so long to call A simple friend seeks to talk with you about your problems...A real friend seeks to help you with your problems A simple friend wonders about your romantic history...A real friend could blackmail you with it A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument...A real friend calls you after you had a fight A simple friend expects you to always be there for them...A real friend expects to always be there for you! simon |

A simple friend doesn't know your parents' first names...A real friend has their phone numbers in his address book
I had a friend like that... until he died. He introduced me to his mother and we've been friends, too, ever since. We're email buddies, too.  for Neil and for Rubye, his mom.

Septembermorn - im sorry to hear that about your friend, its sad when our friends leave us like that. but im glad you still talk to his mum, thats definately a good thing. i will send my love to both Neil and Rubye. and bethsway - im glad it touched you. it did me too when i first read it and i couldnt think of anywhere more appropriate to pass it on than to here. its a pleasure to post it here for others. i hope you are all ok, everyone here at PC has a friend in me so if theres anything i can do for anyone, of if anyone wants a chat, you all know where i am. love y'all simon |
