Being a friend in tough times

3/22/2012

It’s been said, a friend walks in when others walk out. When times are truly tough, when the world feels like such an inhospitable place, that’s when our true friends step up. They step in when it seems everyone else steps out.

And why is that so? It just might be that our friends are going through their own ordeal when we’re going through ours. It could be they have never experienced what we’re experiencing and they haven’t a clue how to help. Our problems might be frightening or our issues too large. There might be a myriad of valid reasons why a friend can’t be there when they’re needed.

But somehow there always seems to be a friend who finds the time to listen and is willing to be supportive and lend a hand. Thank goodness for those friends.
