Friendship

She knew her friend was hurting…despite brave attempts to hide her pain…despite her efforts to be sunny…she couldn’t stop the rain. But her friend saw through her sadness…she could see the suffering in her friend’s eyes…because once a friend becomes a friend…a friend’s sorrow is difficult to disguise. When she saw how her friend was suffering…she began to suffer too….wanting desperately to help…unsure of what to do. For no one…not even a friend knows when or how another friend’s pain and suffering will end…and so she thought…the best thing she could do…was simply…be her friend So she offered her friend her friendship…offered to travel with her on this journey…no matter how long…how difficult…how rough…. and she could see by the smile in her friend’s eyes… her friendship…was enough.
