The Gift of Friendship

"Friendship is one of the greatest gifts a human being can receive. It is a bond beyond common goals, common interests, or common histories. It is a bond stronger than sexual union can create, deeper than a shared destiny can solidify, and even more intimate than the bonds of marriage or community. Friendship is being with the other in joy and sorrow, even when we cannot increase the joy or decrease the sorrow. It is a unity of souls that gives nobility and sincerity to love. Friendship makes all of life shine brightly. Blessed are those who lay down their lives for their friends."
-- Henri Nouwen

"No greater love hath anyone, than he/she lay down their life for their friends...."
Jesus

Give away your life... To The Friend of Friends and for your friends.
Grateful
