TRUE FRIENDSHIP
I have been a bit glum these last few days. Wondering why allot of things where done by another party. Wondering why I am so sad.
I am a man I should be over this already!! Be strong you have the will to move on, I have told myself. I have walked around being busy when not working helping with our students here at home. But alas the feelings welling up inside just seem to not go away.
Till I got bored and began reading a book “what I didn’t learn at school” by Jamie Macintyre. An Australian multi millionaire at the age of 28. He puts it so simply. To have the gratitude that is the difference between poor people and rich. To have the gratitude of the fact that you are alive, of the fact that you live in one of the wealthiest countries in the world. To be proud that you can give something to someone today, be it just a smile or just a help up the step, or just a short conversation with a stranger.
Tonight I have had an excellent night I went for a walk I didn’t know why I had to but I had to go. On my walk I felt like a beer and upon sitting I was asked if I would like the special. A pint of TED (Tooheys Extra Dry) just $4. I finished that and still had to go. I reached the beach. A quiet night being Thurs. Late night shopping her in Aust. There were not many about which was good for the mood I was in. I jumped to the ringing vibration in my pocket, mum, where are you she questions. Just at the Mosley square I reply then the call drops out. So I start back on the 45 min walk. Passing the same place I stopped in again for another TED.
I saw a lady that has been here in this part of the city since I was 12 years old. “the bag lady” was what she was called I had never spoken to her in the 25 years I have watched her come into the local and sit and have a portergaff in the winter or coffee in the summer. But tonight I said hello, and she recognised me. Even though I have been away from the area for 3 ½ years. We talked about the old bar and my trade and her life training horses in the converted bar we were sitting in which used to be stables. Eventually we talked about and relationships. Not having the best of times of late with this subject I turned silent. Sitting there I get another vibration, text this time, from a friend and this friend has the most perfect timing and the gift to send the right words at the right time.
Thankyou sis for that (I dare not call her ate! Joking he he).and here is my response for cheering me up so much with your mess. Wow this is one of the longest posts I have made!!
Your best friend
Is someone that you spend your time with
But you don’t get the best advice from.
The wisest things
Don’t come from the best advisers.
But a true friend can be trusted,
Listened to, and is
Worth spending the most time with.
THANK YOU
My True Friend

life teaches us few things
but the things that we learn are often
hard to take
hard to bounce back from
but if we sit
and dwell on the thoughts
of what would have
been
then we will
get nowhere in life
to move on is to grow
to move on is to learn
people can presume to be transparent
and portray themselves how they want
but the only thing that matters
is yourself.
being honest to yourself and others
treat others
the way you would like to be treated
yourself..

I am not really a religious person. i recieved a text mess. from a friend today, about true love and loving someone. and my mother showed me a passage from the bible that was fitting with the conversation
1 corinth. chapt. 13::
1. What if I could speak all languages
of humans and of angels?
If I did not love others,
I would be nothing
more than a noisy gong
or a clanging cymbal.
2. What if I ould prophesy
and understand all secrets and all knowledge?
and what if I had the faith that moved mountains?
I would be nothing, unless I loved others.
3. what if I gave away all hat I owned
and let myself be burnt alive?
I would gain nothing, unless I loved others.
4. Love is kind and patient,
never jealous, boastful, proud, or rude.
Love isn't selfish or quick tempered.
It doesn't keep a record of wrongs that others do.
6.Love rejoices in the truth, but not in evil.
7. Love is always supportive, loyal, hopeful, and trusting.
8. Love never fails!

today pieces of my heart lie shattered on the floor
they are bleeding and open wounds
by others taken advantage of
in ways i never thought possible
a fool in love blinded by love
to see the truth
of a meddling once trusted friend
but a fool in love true to his feelings
for one true to his hearts desires
feelings once shared now lost
for the meddling of others
love is not taken lightly
nor trust broken
friendship will remain
for feelings are deeply embedded
for the one i love
my hearts pieces i will pick up
slowly mend and stitch with time
for the heart is for the one true
love i feel one true heart i've
shared molded by lifes similar paths
shared in trust and shared in love
are feelings never felt before
once in a lifetime feelings
they comfort the soul in voice
the comfort the soul in letters
move the person to new places
create new life from love shared
with these feelings and love felt
i still have my pride

To me a relationship is based on a few things.
some things that are taken for granted by some.
some things that are earnt and granted over time.
times spent together are precious.
a full and open relationship is lifes dream for everybody I believe.
stabilty, strength, trust, honesty, are all parts that we long for.
stabilty: to be firm in a realtionship and stand firm and believe in who you are with , keep firm through thick and thin good and bad and remain firm and keep the faith.to stand by your partner.
Trust: to have faith to believe that who you are with is honest with you and open.
strength: to be strong when the times become tough. When your trust is is questioned.
and most important of all is honesty between two people that are sharing a relationship.sharing a stable trusting and strong relationship.that as a couple they can have these few things together in life.
love is like a blossom on a fruit tree. when the blossom buds you know that there are steps in its life that it has to take. so you nuture that tree feed it with care provide it with sustanance. to give the tree the stability and strength to produce the fruits of love.

taking lifes simple steps
not asked for much
not wanting much
but to be loved
not to prove ones self
but with actions
mere flowery words
come and go
to open your heart to one
to leave friends, leave work
a decission i made myself
on a promise of love.
has taken times to organise.
WOW!!

A friend is somone who
won't turn away from you.
A friend won't expect
to much or give to little.
A friend will listen
even when they don't
understand or agree with you.
A friend always remembers
the little things you've done
and the times you've shared.
A friend is one
of lifes most precious gifts.

Words twist and tumble
Through my mind
But I can't grab the right word
Or the right line
So we sit
In silence
But it’s not uncomfortable
In fact I love it
You rest your head on my chest
As we lay here
Lovers entwined
Hearts tangled
You raise your head
And look into my eyes
And I see our love
Almost as if it’s a real force
I don’t ever want to lose this moment
You lay your head on my chest once again
And now I can feel your heartbeat
And my hearts skips
And I finally find the words I’m looking for
