Having real friends is a blessing. Real friendship does not come that often in life. If you have someone close to you and they have been someone who has been with you for years. I would say at least 10 years. A 10 year friend; now that is a real friend. You can tell a friend your most private thoughts and trust that it will go no farther than their ears. I have only had 3 real friends in my life and one of them was a Cocker Spaniel. The rest were just associates. But I like it like that. I like to keep things uncomplicated. I like to ask people one of my favorite questions. Which is better? Is finding the right person better? Or is being the right person better? Let me know what you think. Most people get it twisted. I am a professional graphic artist and have been working full time from my home for over 10 years. I love the work I do and sometimes it does not seem like work at all. I am also a Christian drug rehab minister and have been for 6 years. It is fulfilling to see God at work in the lives of people who are down and need a hand up.
