******************************************
Friends are the ones who will:
Stick with you when life is hardest, find the truth before accusing, and ask questions rather than assuming.
They don't make fun of you, they listen sincerely when you have a concern, especially if it's about them.
They will laugh with you, cry with you, get in trouble with you, and they won't be afraid to tell you when you are doing something wrong.
They will definitely try to still figure out why you are feeling the way you are, and doing the things you are doing. Rather than tell you that you're stupid for feeling that way.
They wouldn't turn their back on you, they wouldn't hide things from you, and they wouldn't try and make you feel hurt in any way.
They would never stop believing in you, and they would never say anything that would work to destroy your belief in yourself.
Even if they're mad at you or disappointed in you, they wouldn't avoid you. They would still recognize your need for a friend, and they would still be there for you.
They wouldn't make a promise that they don't intend to keep. They wouldn't say anything that they don't really mean.
*****************************
Now Think!!! If you would treat a friend this good, why don't you treat everyone this good? Shouldn't we all be friends? We are all brothers and sisters. There is absolutely no excuse for ever treating anyone less than the very best.
