Friendship! ™

Ello!

I made a new header and enter button, as you may have noticed =]

I haven’t done a deep post for quite a while, and I’ve been itching to do one, so here it goes.

During the Victorian Bushfires earlier this month, many lives were lost.  The bushfires brought out the best in alot of us.  Geneorosity, caringness, mateship.  Mateship is the same as friendship.

As we go through our lives, we will make countless friends.  We will grow closer and apart as time goes on, and we may lose some friends.

Friends are always there for each other, in thick and thin.

Leona Lewis is a great singer.  Her song, “Footprints in the sand”, shows an example of friendship.  Here are the lyrics for the song:

The chorus goes like this:

“I promise you, I’m always there.

When your heart is filled with sadness and despair.

I’ll carry you when you need a friend.

You’ll find my footprints in the sand.”

It’s an awesome song, and the lyrics speak friendship and love strongly.  Friends are always there for each other.

Another song which demonstrates friendship is “Here I Am”, once again by Leona Lewis.  The chorus is:

“Well, if you need a place where you can run.  

If you need a shoulder to cry on.

Well, I’ll always be your friend

When you need a shelter from the rain

When you need a healer for your pain

I will be there time and time again.

When you need someone to love you

Here I am”

Once again, a beautiful song.  Friends are there for each other through thick and thin.

Remember that during the next week, and through the rest of your lives.  Friends always stick together and are always there for each other.

    I feel really good after making a deep post =] I recommend you get Leona Lewis’s songs, all of them, because she’s cool =]

    My favourite quotes from the post are
    “I no doubt deserved my enemies, but I don’t believe I deserved my friends.”
    - Walt Whitman

    and

    “If all my friends were to jump off a bridge, I wouldn’t jump with them, I’d be at the bottom to catch them”

    They make me smile when I realise how lucky I am to have some awesome friends.

    I dunno if i have friends at me school. I am quite anti-social with kids my age at my school. I have people who i think are friends,but i sometimes doubt that. So my saying on friendship would be friends should be on your side all the time, and should never be against you when you come upon a problem.

    Awesome post, Josh.
    I feel that way about my friends also. I supose I could say that this post has stirred something in me, to be thankful for the great friends I’ve got. :)

    Hey, Josh, I’d already read this post when I posted my post. :) Don’t know why you wanted me to read it, but just to let you know, I have. :)
    I think our posts go hand in hand, if you know what I mean. Real friends would give up their life for you.
