Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "The glory of friendship … is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him."
Friendship, though, is a two-way street; in order to find friendship we must first learn how to be a friend. Since each of us has learned friendship skills from a variety of sources, it stands to reason that since no two people are alike, no two people will give or receive friendship in exactly the same way.
You cant just be frens with any Tom, Dick & Harry or Sarah, Susan & Jane for that matter. Sometimes you try and it just does not workout, sometimes you just dun want to try, sometimes you try to hard. The irony is you can never say how long its gonna last or whats around the corner, worrying about it aint gonna change what you have in you hands right now.
The kicker is this, you may want friendship in a different way as compared to what your partners wants, may be more or may be less, but never walk away from it knowing you never tried, that would mean you failed.
We can learn and therefore grow from the friendships we develop. Leaving you with this quote
"We call that person who has lost his father, an orphan; and a widower that man who has lost his wife. But that man who has known the immense unhappiness of losing a friend, by what name do we call him? Here every language is silent and holds its peace in impotence."
