"What Friendship"

" Friends are important to me"



"Hi, I wanted to make a page for my friends. You see friendship is very important to me. I like to think that in someway I have touched my friends in one way or another. I want to say a few things to some of them and then I have a poem for all of them. I enjoy writing. It gives me a feeling of peace. When things become difficult or I am having a hard time understanding why things happen the way they do. I sit and think and usually end up writing about how I am feeling. So this page is for all my friends. I hope that in someway I have touched you all, hopefully in more good ways then bad."

Gumby- What do I say to My BEST FRIEND? We always seem to be able to talk about anything but when it comes to feelings well we need to work on that one I believe. We have been here for eachother over the past year and went through some difficult things together and over come, we have had fun and enjoyed eachothers company. Life is too short and sometimes we take what we have for granted. I will always hold a special place in my heart for you and the friendship we shared. I hope that one day your dreams will come true. And always know that I will be smiling down upon you.

"What friendship means to me"



What friendship means to me
is to love, respect, and care about
someone unconditionally.
To be there for them nomatter what
and whenever possible,
not to judge them for who they are,
or what they want to be.
Don't ever try and change them,
Care for them for who they are
and not what you might want them to be.
We all have become friends
in one way or another, you see
but please know that you all are very dear to me.
I care for you all individually.
I try not to judge or lack in sincerity
but please always know
that I do care and I am here for you.
If you want honesty, you know
where to come because that's
what you'll always get from me.
I want you all to be happy
that is all I have ever wanted you all to be.
So if you need a friend
someone who cares unconditionally
then you know I'm here and you can count on me,
I will never judge or condemn you for anything
just know I'm here
my door is open and my phone too.
So if you need to talk,
or just want to say hello
please feel free to do so too.
because that's what a friend is to me
to be there and to care and love you unconditionally.
