Today I observed a prime example of friendship: two 6 year old boys- fighting. They were angry and frustrated at each other- annoyed that they weren't in agreement. They fought for around 20 minutes, and then they started kicking a ball around. How is it possible that their fight could so easily end?
Many times in friendships we fight. And many times we forgive and become friends again. Sometimes we promise that we will never, ever talk to each other again, we say "I hate you" to each other; but we secretly know, deep in our hearts, that those fierce promises will definitely be broken. We know that we will always be friends- not because we look alike, not because we live in the same town, not because we're both rich, not because we like the same things, but because we are tied together at the heart and because we have a special friendship that time and space cannot destroy.
I believe that true friends are those that can be together after years of not seeing each other and still be able to hang out like normal, friends are those that we never lose because they live in our hearts, they are the people that we can fight with and the people that we can promise never to talk to and then break those promises freely and fearlessly. True friends are made in the heart and are tied together at heart- because true friendship is when time, distance, victory, loss, money or health don't matter, because true friends are made in the heart.
