Friendship

Friendship isn't always easily described. The Eskimos, they say, have a hundred different words for snow. Unfortunately, the English language isn't quite as innovative, though it has vast opportunities to differentiate meaning. Certainly, Love is one of those opportunities. And so, too, is Friendship.

Instead of different words, however, we're stuck with simple adjectives. Close friend. Best friend. Childhood friend. Intimate friend. Trusted friend. Beloved friend. But whether you use adjectives or different words, few could deny the nearly infinite meaning in such a simple word.

Friends are special people. We can't pick our family, and we're sorely limited in the number of them at any rate. Society and mores (and often our own conscience) dictate we select a single mate. But our friends can be as diverse and infinite as the adjectives we choose. Our friends, in a very real sense, reflect the choices we make in life.

A poem to all my TF friends (not written by me na, i am not a poet) lol

Although you are a friend of mine

and messages we exchange,

I wouldn't know you on the street,

and doesn't that seem strange?

You hold a place within my life,

unusual and unique;

We share laughter and sadnesss,

and still, we do not meet.

I picture what I think you are,

perhaps you picture me.

An intriguing game for both of us

for someone we can't see.

So for this friendship we possess,

we owe this webbyl a debt,

Perhaps the charm lies in the fact

that we have never met.
