Five Minute Friday: Friends

 Five Minute Friday


Friday- oh how I love you, Friday!! Today, I get to link up with hundreds of other bloggers to talk about the same topic!! Today is our "Five Minute Friday" bloggy day!! You can click right over there to see more details, but put simply,we write for FIVE minutes, and five minutes only about one topic - our posts are unedited and raw. We just write what comes to mind when we read the prompt for the week.

This week I am SO VERY EXCITED about the prompt! I have been wanting to write a "friend" post for weeks and weeks, but couldn't "perfect" what I wanted to write. SO this forum is perfect for me... my post doesn't have to be perfect... it can just be my raw thoughts written down without immaculate detail!!! 

I.AM.SO.EXCITED!

Friends... 
five minutes...


Friends love at all times.
Friends will stick closer than a brother.
As iron sharpens iron, 
so one man sharpens another. !! 

Friends can double dip, and nobody gets grossed out!
Friends can walk in without knocking, and nobody freaks out!
Friends feel comfortable taking off their shoes!
Friends go with you to get your first tattoo!

Friends will hurt your feelings, 
    but forgiveness from a friend always brings healing.

Friends will not always answer your text as fast as you'd like,
    but they will never tell you to take a hike!

Friends will not always see things your way, 
    but they believe your differences are okay.


Friends will build you up, not tear you down.
Friends greet you with a smile- never a frown!
Friends support your life ambitions,
and helping you achieve them becomes their mission!

STOP


Thank you to all of the people in my life that I consider a friend. You mean more to me than words can ever express. Thank you for encouraging me along this life, and for allowing me to be there for you as well!!

I can't imagine life without my friends!

In the words of Michael W Smith
"Friends are friends forever, If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say 'never', because the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go, in the Father's hands we know
THAT A LIFETIME'S NOT TOO LONG, TO LIVE AS FRIENDS!"
