True Friends

True Friends

“In prosperity our friends know us,

in adversity we know our friends.”

John Churton Collins 1848 – 1908, British Literary Critic,

   

As I see it. . . . . . . .

A true friend

There are friends in your life . . . . and there are true friends the difference between the two are worlds apart.

We all have friends and in times of prosperity you seem to attract even more in to your life. They are there to enjoy the good times . . . . and to revel in your success along with you.

As long as everything is going well they are there. But in the storms of adversity come into your life they will run for cover . . . . and leave you standing the weather of adversity by yourself.

That type of friend is a fair weather friend . . . . and someone that you will most likely not to be able to count on.

The test of a true friend is not found in times of prosperity . . . . but on the bumpy road of adversity. A true friend will stand with you in your time of success . . . . and be there to support you in your time of adversity.

True friends are priceless . . . . and a valued resource in your life. 

A true friend brings a special value into your life like others are not able to do. They offer us a listening ear . . . .  a helping hand . . . . They seem to know when you need a push. They also seem to be there at just the right moment . . . . and come up with just the right thing to say.

Everyone needs a true friend in their life, someone that they can count on. The best way to attract true friend into your life . . . . is to be true friend to others.
