Sometimes the deepest bond can be found in tragedy and the most difficult of times.
Friendships bon of compassion are lasting and true. ( Ladd & Kelly, 46 )
Be a good friend, and good friends will surely find you.
Do you have a friend you have bonded with through thick and thin?
Fortunately, I am truly blessed with two. One is my soul mate, my husband. God knows what a blessing he has been! He has been with me through the loss of friends, my sister Jeannine's health problems, my 21st birthday, and more. I am a truly blessed young woman!
The other friend is of two or more years. He has made a real effort to bring me up when I feel I have failed or fallen short. He has been a good friend and a blessing too.
