on friendship

"hold true friends with both your hands"


(found the photo online)


I find it amazing how in this world wherever you go in the whole world you can find incredible passionate whole loving people. It reaffirms my faith in humanity when I have seen one too many crime victims at work or seen a few too many broken relationships. To look at the photos on my wall, in an album or framed or to sift through the talismans I've acquired here and there, and remember those beautiful souls I have had the privilege of encountering, is reassuring in a powerful way. With the technology today it is so easy to stay in touch and reconnect perhaps decades later, when you have that connection through the heart, time means nothing. Friendship love is the strongest most powerful type because the trust and intimacy which develops is not subject to the comparison or competition which romantic love often is, there is no limit to the number of friends you can fall in friendship love with, you can be in love with dozens of people with none of the messy complications of romance. Even with a "perfect" lover one is not fulfilled without strong friendships because each person you connect with on a different wavelength of energy and each of those connections supplies a certain part of your Self and delivers your energy into another in precisely the way that resonates with them. I am continuously and endlessly in awe of the friendships I share with these people all over the world.
