Sometimes I hear individuals state that they do not have any friends and are sad because of this. Others tell me that they have some friends who take advantage of them. A third group talk of their thankfulness for a wonderful number of friendships that are mutually satisfying.

Having a support network that you can trust, depend on, share with, and confide in is invaluable. I woke up to a vibrating cell phone. My relationship and agreement with Esmeralda had me avoiding most of my normal activities, so there were people that were trying to reach me.

Friendship is something that we should all cherish in our lives. Our friends help to support us and to make us who we are. We can go out and kick back with our friends and forget about the petty little things that happen throughout the day.
