What is it that makes a FRIEND? Someone who is interested genuinely in you and willing to listen, share and is honest. I've had several close friends throughout the years. Some I haven't heard from for years as distance separates us. It does take EFFORT and TIME to build a friendship that is reciprocal. Some individuals don't make good friends as they are TAKERS that can drain your energies and not givers that listen and give ENCOURAGEMENT. A good friend is a real TREASURE! To be a friend to others takes effort, love and sometimes PATIENCE. So fun to have Caryn around to do things together this winter...
