Here is the dreamer. One who created and played with the pen and the keys of a world soon unmade. She remembers the wind, water, earth and flame. She loved even shadows but knew naught of hate. With a heart too soft and a strength unseen, she loved the world and she lived a dream.

The Importance of Friendship

184. Having someone as a friend is like a breath of fresh air. Indispensable. Prevents us from feeling loneliness. Keeps our sanity intact. Problems dissolve with just a hand to hold on, a shoulder to cry on, a listening ear, a smile and an open heart and mind. People need people. And the relationships we have with them are blessings to be cherished and nurtured. Friends are like angels sent by God to light our darkest days and share our brightest ones. They have seen us at our worst and our best yet are there through it all. They are the first ones to notice the glints of starlight in our eyes when we are happy and the sadness in our eyes, hidden behind a smile. The best and most important part of it all: they are the ones that take all our sorrows, regardless of their own, and try to make everything better for us, restoring that equilibrium in our lives. I've had many friends in my lifetime and a few close ones, each of them important to my life in their own unique way. Giving happiness and color in their own time, and receiving them in kind. Thank you for being one of my true friends. Sometimes I forget how truly important you are to me, not only in terms of love and chemistry but friendship as well. You're not just my boyfriend, lover and future life partner. You're my very best friend in the world. I think you're the one who understands me best of all. Though we do get into misunderstandings and disagreements sometimes, amazingly, you're still here with me, far longer than anyone has ever been inside my restless heart and have never once let go of my hand. I love you, dearest friend. No matter the words I utter, cannot even begin to compare the love in my heart for you- one that is unconditional and that will last for as long as I live. Nothing you do could possibly extinguish that love. Absolutely nothing at all. I will remain devoted to you and to our friendship.
