A friend to me

... is someone who sees
sorrow behind my smile,
love behind my anger,
reason behind my silence.

... is convenient when it is, and when it is not. 

... stands by, present or not. 

... is authentic.

... honest. 

... shares common interests, not merely a taker but also exposes me to new things. 

Basically, a friend is someone who makes life a little better and sometimes a whole lot better! 

Before I can have a friend, I have to be a friend first. 

Not everyone can be!

Dealing with signs

When something keeps happening over and over again, I consider it a sign that it needs to be dealt with, but often I tend to ignore the signs as nothing to worry about, "it will pass"; other times, I simply procrastinate to act on. 

Hindsight, it's really not always a negative message. It could just be a gentle reminder, a nudge, that I've got some work to do! 



Note: Apparent signs for me concerns health and people-related.
