A True Friend

A True Friend

Anyone can be your friend, especially when you have 
money, or when they can take advantage of you.
Everyone says - I'm your friend., but when they see you 
down, they don't even come around.

Those friends are false. friends like these are many and
you find them everywhere. If you go to jail - they don't
know who you are and if you are sick - they don't visit
you. These are the people that once said were your friends.

A true friend is like a four leaf clover, hard to find, but of
good luck to have. A true friend is like a star, you don't always 
see, but you know it's there. A true friend is like an Angel, that
helps you fly when your wings want to fold.  a true friend  - you
can not buy. It's a gift sent to you, from GOD.

A true friend will be with you through thick and thin. A true friend 
is one that you will invite to a party and might not show up, but
if you need him/her -  they will be there. This is the kind of friend
that I will be for you - if you will choose me to be your friend...
