Light Bearers
It's funny how you can waste time with some people, doing trivial things, or doing nothing at all. It's amazing how you never get bored with certain people, no matter how often you see them, how often you talk to them. Even when there are no new experiences to share, we're content with just small talk, about things that don't even matter in the long run.
Beyond sharing the same interests, true friends are those whom you can count on through thick and thin. They're the ones who remain present when you are at your worse. They are the ones who are there by your side when all the world is against you. They're not the ones who leave you when you make mistakes, instead they help you correct your mistakes. They're not the ones who are quick to judge you, they readily accept you for who you are. You can count on them for almost anything, and they won't expect anything in return.
That's what people say when you ask them to define true friends. Beyond all those clichés, friends are also the people who make you feel better, who gives you a brighter perspective in life, even when they don't do anything. A simple smile can give comfort, and when you look into their eyes you see utmost sincerity. No words are needed for you to understand each other. Their mere presence give you the strength to hold on.
As they say, lovers come and go, but friendship can last a lifetime. When lovers stay, isn't it true that they remain by your side because they've become your friends as well?
I am thankful that I have a few such people present in my life--- people that I can call true friends. Those few people who really understand me. Few people that I can ask to stay with me as I quietly watch the sunset, without bitching how boring it is, even if they really think it's such a waste of time. When the sun has set and clouds fill the sky, they give me hope and shine a light as the world is enveloped in darkness.

I SAY!!!!!!\
That was quite poetic . HOPEFULLY you will get past the romantic twaddle and find something brighter INSIDE of yourself.
BRIGHTER THAN A BILLION suns.
IT REALLY IS THERE!!!!!!!!!!.
The sad part about that is, once you have discovered that place inside of you ,[ if you ever do go that direction] you will be surrounded by people who want the SAME [ that inner quality you discovered through your own enquiry] from you … ALWAYS wanting to see life through your perspective, you’ll be in constant demand and , these” friendships” as you can them will drain you,
You will be the FLAME and your attractions you call friendships will be like MOTHS to a FLAME…
be careful what you ask for . you may get it..
you know what, I totally disagree. From where I come from the definition of friend means a person who's with you, does not compete with you, does see life through your perspective at times but does not suck the life out of you.
if what we s0=call friends are have qualities that totally oppose these definitions, then, are they really friends?
FRANCE! it's not just a country, it's a reminder of the beauty of friendship!
Friendship
Remains
And
Never
Could
End!
Just blog hopping! Ciao!
you know what,
WHAT??
I totally disagree.
COOL .. HOW COME?????[ [ the CAPS by the ayon my part seperates TEXT]. im NOT shouting].
YOU SAY.....
From where I come from the definition of friend means a person who's with you,
OK
WELL . JUST BECAUSE A PERSON IS WITH YOU HARDLY QUALIFIES FOR AN ACT OF” FRIENDSHIP”, WERE ALL ON THIS PLANET TOGETHER, THAT INCLUDES ALL LIVING CREATURES TECHNICALLY [ CAN BE PROVEN SCIENTIFICALLY] EVERYTHING IS ONE. SO YOUR SAYING DISCRIMINATION [ FROM YOUR PERSEPTVIE] SETS A STANDARD ?
does not compete with you,
OK. . YOUR RIGHT . WHO NEEDS CHALLENGE,???
WHO NEEDS TO BE PRESENTED WITH A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE???
WHO NEEDS SOMEONE TO QUESTION YOU?????
, WHO NEEDS TO TELL YOU THAT YOUR PERSPECTIVE IS NOT ABSOLUTE. ???
IS THAT CALLED COMPETITION?????
or IS IT CALLED ENQUIRY SO THAT THEY MAY WALK IN YOUR VELVET SHOES OF WISDOM in this ILLUSION WE CALL REALITY???
does see life through your perspective at times but does not suck the life out of you.
NO PROBLEM WITH THAT . [ no one needs a “ whiner” ]
BUT ONE MUST BE CAUTIOUS AS “ NOT TO CAST HIS PEARLS AMONGST THE SWINE” A YUCKY ANALOGY BUT IT WORKS.
IF ONES KNOWLEDGE IS GREATER THAN THE RECIPIENT WHO FINDS FAULT IN THE IGNORANT, It IS NOT THE IGNORANT ONE [ those who suck the life outta ya] THAT IS AT FAULT BUT THE ONE WHO POSSESS KNOWLEDGE.
if what we s0=call friends are have qualities that totally oppose these definitions, then, are they really friends?
THEY IN ESSENCE ARE A PART OF YOU THAT IS NO LONGER A PART OF YOU [ WOW THAT'S KINDA AN APHORISM HUH???]
. YOU HAVE GONE BEYOND THAT THROUGH LIFETIMES OF EVOLUTION [IF YOU BELIEVE IN THAT SORTA THING. ], SO IN YOUR[ PRESENT] PATH WHATEVER IT IS THE GIFT YOU ACQUIRED FOR YOUR ADVANCEMENT INTO THIS REALM LEAVES YOU WITH A CRITIQUE FOR THOSE OF A LESSER VALUE?
DAMN DIDN’T YOU LEARN ANYTHING THIS TIME AROUND? ???
WERE ALL THE SAME. NO ONE IS DIFFERENT. WERE ALL GOING TO THE SAME PLACE. DEATH.
ONE CANT DEMAND OR PRESENT A STATE OF “ WHAT SHOULD BE OR NOT” BUT FIND A MOMENT OF THE SAME TRUTH IN PERHAPS OTHERS. IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE IF THEY ARE TOTALLY OPPOSED TO YOUR THINKING. ITS ALL ABOUT THE HERE AND NOW AND THE MOMENT OF INSPIRATION YOU CAN ACQUIRE TO PROCEED TO THE NEXT DOOR THAT OPENS TO YA. AND HOW WE CALL HELP OTHERS ALONG THE PATH . NOT LIVE THEIR LIVES.
BUT JUST BE APART OF THE SAME GROUP OF PEOPLE
FRIENDS WILL NOT CONFIRM YOUR EXISTENCE,[ you a thank death for that ] BUT THERE SHOULD NEVER BE A MOMENT WITHOUT COMPASSION FOR THOSE OF A LESSER STATE,
AGAIN WE ARE ALL THE SAME.
THE WORD “ FRIENDS” IS NO DIFFERENT THAN LOOKING AT THE OCEAN. [ ANALOGY HERE]
WHEN YOU SEE THE OCEAN WHAT DO YOU SEE??
WAVES? TIDES? FOAM? COLOUR AND LIGHT IN MASS’S OF FLOTSAM AND JETSAM ??
NOPE??
ALL YOU SEE IS WATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ALL OTHER DESCRIPTIONS ARE NOTHING BUT WORDS TO DESCRIBE THE OCEAN. TO CONFIRM THE FACT THAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT WATER THAT'S NUTZ HUH?????
ITS JUST WATER!!!!!!!!
SAME WITH THE WORD FRIENDS..
SINCE EVERYTHING AROUND YOU IS NOTHING MORE THAN A REFLECTION OF YOUR OWN SELF. THEN ALL YOU ARE SEEING IS YOURSELF.
BECAUSE OF THE TRANSITORY NATURE OF ONES EXISTENCE THERE CAN NEVER BE A SENSE OF PERMANENCE IN SAID STATEMENT ON YOUR PART.
SO IN TRUTH . FRIENDS DON’T EXIST. BECAUSE OF THE CHANGING NATURE OF THE DESIRE OF YOUR OWN EGO.
BUT COMPASSION FOR SAID STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS [ CALLED REALITY] IS THE THREAD THAT HOLDS US ALL TOGETHER. IT DWELLS IN THE HERE AND NOW!!!.
so much for the power of illusion[ reality] huh???
:)
DEar Anon
GREAT acronym . . I cant top that for no other reason than your talking about a country that would practically start a war over VERBS!!!!
