I was thinking about the meaning of friendship, opened my black folder and found this...
"When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions or cure, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silient with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares." ~ Henri Nouwen
May tomorrow be a better day than today...
I hv always been wondering 好朋友的定义是什么?我是不是个值得交的朋友?Hmm...心里有太多疑问,但也许答案并不是最重要的。只要问心无愧就行了。
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment and for sharing your thots gal :) hmm...yup, maybe it's not really an important question to ask. U know, my thots...I feel that we shouldn't judge whether someone is worthy of a friendship coz in friendships, we dun weigh nor do we measure, agree? :P
ReplyDeleteYes, true friendship is not about how long, how close, how many similarities etc etc. It just exists. U don't care if what u do is reciprocated. U just hope what u did helped n perhaps impact something or someone, espy someone who needs it. Knowing that she is happy n in good hands makes u happier.
