Take me for what I am
With the good comes the bad.
A heart divided, mind undecided
Lost in the illusion of what is

No one is perfect..and the idea that one should conform to the perfect, is unrealistic. you can have a heart of gold..but protect it with all that is. As it should not be unforgiven to see that it is so.

When you extend a friendship...be sure you understand, that everyone has their own fragile moments...ones that might seem unworthy of friendship. But understand..that is when a friend is needed the most. In those hard times, the ones that you might not understand..but none the less need you to stand by your friend to see them through it.

A true friend will be there in the hard times..and will not bail when the going gets tough.

A true friend will fight for their friend. Honor their friend, and lift them up.

A true friend will not allow them to be attacked without provocation.

Friends till the end.

As I look around and see my friends...I ask...can I open my heart and mind to these friends? Can I bear my soul? Can I let them see inside my mind?

If, and only if the answer is yes..than that is a friend.

Can you open your mind to your friend? Do you trust them with your deepest secrets? Will you know there is no judgment?

Then you truly do have a friend.

Feel blessed that you have such a friend..as they are rare..and few.

Honor that friendship, and protect it......it is rare indeed.

And always take the good with the bad.

Blessed be friends

Conceptual relationships, like friend, boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife, neighbor, classmate, team member, etc. dictate culturally determined "Simon Says" behaviors.

People do not behave according to Simon Says Puppet Show concepts, however. They behave according to spiritual laws, naturally.

Once the "puppet show" false reality based on these concepts is stretched to breaking, the relationships end; usually in an ugly way.

Key is to achieve non-conceptual awareness, a spiritual dimension of being deeper than mental constructs.
