I Have A Friend...

-I have another friend, he'll pick up the phone just to say "Hey man, didn't want anything. I was just thinking about you and thought I'd call. Hope all is well. He's gifted, much more gifted than me, a good speaker, one who's been through some horrific trials and hurdles, he's been hurt, but he's an overcomer, he's a victor, he's humble. He's a great friend and brother, although he's not my biological brother...

-I another friend, she's beautiful on the outside, she's beautiful on the inside too, but sometimes I think a bit confused... but she's always busy, busy with life, busy with work, busy being busy. Sometimes she'll call, other times she'll email and say "wanted to send you a smile today," or "let's have breakfast" ...that just rocks my world...

-I have another friend, he's really awesome. A great father, good husband to his wife, humanitarian, lover of God, committed to faith, a fantastic mechanic and all-around great brother. Every once in-a-blue-moon he'll call, he calls me by my full name. I can't help but smile and think, yeah "this is my big brother." Although he's not really my biological brother...

-I have another friend, she's gorgeous to me, she's very nice. She's a great mom, a great cook and loves to travel. She loves me, but she'll never tell me openly. She shows me, we are completely opposite in ethnicity, but it doesn't seem to matter to her. And it never matters to me. She's kind, but she's very inquisitive. She's a grandmother now -of one. She's done well as a mom, she's a great co-worker, and loves life...

-I have another friend, he's been doing a lot better in terms of keeping up with me. He is an awesome person, a great husband to his wife and father for his children. He takes the time to call, He takes the time to email or text. He's a great speaker, intelligent, articulate, stable, one with scars, healed, a helper and mentor to young boys...

-I have another friend, she must love me something special because she gets mad when I don't accept her email invitations to "some party" that she's planned, for family or husband or sister. She's always celebrating something. She among my many cousins has reached out to me the most. She is my friend, I do love her, she is my cousin, she's not a busy body (at least from what I can tell). This one's smart, business minded, and achiever, bubbly, I love her...

-I have another friend, I know he cares because he'll take the time to call. He's busy, but he just wants to hear my voice and say that he loves me. He's my brother, he' my biological brother. He's a great father, been through many hard things with his family, but he's a forgiver, he doesn't bleed all over you with his problems, but you can see where he's been stabbed in the heart, misunderstood and taken advantage of. Yet he loves, still loves, bleeds love. I've been there for him and will continue to be...

-I have another friend. He was a great friend, always thought highly of me when I didn't think highly of myself. He never treated me differently anytime I saw him, he was always consistent in his love and appreciation for me. He's gone on to heaven now, passed away from cancer, he was barely 50. We knew each other as young boys, grew up together, sort of, our parents had mutual respect for each other...

-I have another friend, I just met her off the cuff, on a popular social networking site. we have yet to learn more about one another, but from a first time conversation I can tell she's wonderful. She has that "new friend smell"...

-I have another friend, he was one of my best friends. His fur was brown, I remember getting him from the humane facility in the city I lived in as a boy. My dad and mom loved me so much to get him for me. We took care of him, vaccinated him, de-wormed him, feed him, loved him. He played in the house with me as a kid, much to the disagreement from my parents. He loved us. One day I came home and he was gone, we were all sad. None of use ever knew what happened to him. I believe someone dognapped him...

-I have another friend, that friend is "you." Thank you friend, thank you for taking a moment to let me share with you. Would you take a moment and share with me? Leave a comment about one special friend that you have.
