Friendship
What is friendship? In 1537, Pietro Aretino is supposed to have said "I keep my friends as misers do their treasure, because, of all the things granted us by wisdom, none is greater or better than friendship". My friend, Vladimyr, and I just had a discussion of sorts about friendship. It's a complicated concept. A good friend is someone who is there for you, during good times and bad times, lending their support. It's someone who you invite into your life, your home, and, ultimately, into your heart. Good friends remain so, throughout their lives.

Good friends are a lifetime treasure. We can make new friends but always miss the ones we have lost over the years. Sometimes we are lucky and family members can be our best friends as well. Sounds like Vladimyr is a good friend- sounds like a keeper.
