Lending frequency to misunderstanding many stand alone victims to their own quest to be found correct. Friendship is not a wanderers prize but born of intention and an operative will to seek the answers in social difficulty and discomfort. Why must we be alone to seek reward of accompaniment? Resisting our own contentment and completion we kick against the goads with all we meet preparing them for the fallow ground of our rigid expectation. How awesome the day when I have nothing to say but let everyone be who they choose and win or lose refuse to recuse.
The leniency of assault and the soft landing of unfavorable experience equip comradery with appropriate solace or salve to the misunderstood or wounded. Walking alone is battle, never choosing to have one’s back covered rather determining assault or fear as mates. Do not wander the paths of rich experience avoiding all the messy missteps into the care of others simply to remain unscathed by the emotions and hardships that are endemic to relations. Pry open the cans of possibility and promise to find even when disappointed the gains of growth and recall. Memories though often stolen by time are treasures equipping us for legacy. A bad friend is a the best lesson one need in the valuation of true love and trust. having been betrayed one aligns with those in greater measure of character and truth.
Though perhaps measured on the fingers of one hand the quality of those few of my friends is worth any limit in their number. Knowing these people has made me better, not of my own self measure but the interaction with their grand qualities. Remember the friends you gain are the treasures that make it through heaven’s passing. I am inured with greater measure of all good things of life and its promise by those who make decision to remain in my company. For without entry into the bonds of friendship we may never be coaxed by those who know us best into becoming the men we would never become without that prompting. Do not fear the sharp edges and rough surfaces of life found in those who would come alongside your vessel to improve skills of navigation, perception, battle and provision.
